Contemporary Gallipoli – Blue Mountains City Art Gallery

Posted on October 11, 2018

‘And the Band Played Waltzing Matilda’ – mixed media assemblage  122 x 70 x 20cm.  Three of my works are included in ‘Contemporary Gallipoli’, a Macquarie University Gallery Touring Exhibition curated by Meredith Brice.

 

 The exhibition runs from 20 October – 25 November 2018

Co-inciding with the 100th anniversary of the end of WWI, Blue Mountains City Art Gallery showcases the touring exhibition Contemporary Gallipoli, an exhibition originally created to mark the ANZAC Centenary in April 2015.

The exhibition includes a diverse array of new works created by both emerging and established artists from Canakkale, near the Gallipoli Peninsula, Turkey, and Australia, whose work unites to take the viewer on an experiential journey of remembrance, and a search for meaning beyond myth and memory.

Artists featured in the exhibition include Ros Auld, Cenk Beyhan, Meredith Brice, Stephen Copland, Mark Davis, Ihsan Doğrusöz, Kate Downhill, Dianne Jones, Burt Muller, Susan O’Doherty, Toby Roberts and Chris Sainsbury. Exhibition curated by Meredith Brice.
