Controversy surrounds Gina Rinehart's portrait at National Portrait Gallery

Gina Rinehart, a wealthy person who owns mines, gave a painting of herself to the National Portrait Gallery. But there are some conditions attached to this gift. The gallery's director, Bree Pickering, said that they are negotiating these conditions. They haven't accepted the painting yet because of these conditions. The conditions are related to how the painting will be displayed. The artist who made the painting is from Perth, and their original works can be bought online for as low as $630. The gallery usually doesn't accept gifts with conditions. The National Gallery of Australia also had a portrait of Gina Rinehart by Vincent Namatjira, which caused some controversy. Many people didn't like this portrait, but it attracted a lot of visitors to the museum. The National Gallery of Australia received negative feedback about the portrait of Gina Rinehart. Some people even asked for the portrait to be removed from the exhibition. The gallery got 47 negative messages out of 125, and 8 requests to remove the portrait, but they didn't reveal who made these requests.
