Ralph Hope-Johnstone was a hydro-electric engineer and photographer who worked with Olegas Truchanas on the campaign to save Lake Pedder in the late 1960s. Together, the two men assembled and organised widely-attended screenings of an audio-visual presentation on Lake Pedder, aiming to show Tasmanians and the wider world what they stood to lose. Peter Dombrovskis's photographs were often shown on these 'slide nights' as well.
The Gallery will be open until 9pm this Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
