Recent Past: Australian painting of the 70s and 80s
14 August - 9 October 2011

The late 1960s through to the early 90s was a period of profound change in Australian painting and in Australian culture. Artists were producing assertive, bold works - Australian yet international in outlook. Australian artists took many pathways, though most were notably in touch with and influenced by wider debates. Ranging from Sydney Ball's Ispahan (1967), hard-edge and resolutely abstract, to Jurek Wybraniec's early work Untitled III (1990), clearly influenced by European neo-expressionist figuration, this exhibition explores the spectrum of paintings produced and ideas explored during this critical period.
