2016 Adelaide Biennial of Australian Art: Magic Object

Are artists the last magicians? Drawing inspiration from the ‘Wunderkammer’, those rooms or cabinets of wonder dedicated to the display of magical objects, the 2016 Adelaide Biennial of Australian Art champions the contemporary artist as conjuror.

A Private Collection – Artist's Choice: Michael Zavros

Continuing the Artist's Choice series of exhibitions, Brisbane-based artist Michael Zavros was invited to work with the Gallery's Collection. Taking his own seductive, realist painting — Unicorn in the anticamera 2008 — as his point of departure, Zavros has cast contemporary beauty, decadence and ego in terms of possessions.

ROCKHAMPTON ART GALLERY

The Prince | Michael Zavros A Rockhampton Art Gallery travelling exhibition.

In New York in the late 1970s a young Richard Prince, working in the tear sheet department at Time Life, began to manipulate images from advertising, reconfiguring them as his own and, in the process, creating some of the most contentious and iconic work of the twentieth century.

CHULALONGKORN ART CENTRE

Selectively Revealed

Selectively Revealed investigates the blurry line between the public and the private in artistic practice. The artist is presented as voyeur, muse, subject, performer and social commentator. Using screen based practices, each artist pushes and pulls at the notion of what is private and what is public, choosing precisely what, when, how or when not to reveal their subjects or themselves.

EXPERIMENTA

Experimenta's Selectively Revealed Open At Digiark Space, Taichung, Taiwan

Selectively Revealed explores the notion of what is public and what is private in our contemporary times. The line between public and private is increasingly blurred and we are constantly forced to question what is appropriate (and indeed interesting) for public consumption and what is best kept to ourselves.
