The first in a five-year programme of contemporary and historic exhibitions, commissions and acquisitions, that will present sculpture and objects by Australian and international artists.
Still Life features the work of five Australian artists - Emily Floyd, Mikala Dwyer, Ronnie van Hout, James Angus and Ricky Swallow - whose sculptures observe contemporary life as well as being considered responses to our material culture. The works include finely detailed realist carvings, computer-modelled architectural propositions and hallucinatory accumulations of improbable crafted objects. Among the ideas that they share are time and memory, and the animate and inanimate. |
