Australian Abstraction

Australian Abstraction reflects upon the legacies of this international art movement with its varietal imports, indices, and counterparts. This exhibition examines the current generation of Australian artists adhering to abstraction. Their diverse practices challenge the aesthetic orthodoxies of abstraction, shape as content, in revealing new ways of thinking and talking about Australian abstraction.
