Jon Tarry to be included in the Reconnaissance Exhibition at Lawrence Wilson Art Gallery
Reconnaissance

Art and social justice in the works of Bob Birch, Christopher Crouch, Susan Norrie & David Mackenzie, and Jon Tarry

Jon Tarry's video installation, sculptural works and works on paper explore a range of geopolitical relationships that exist between Australia and the rest of the world. His exploration of the Curtin Detention Centre in the North West Kimberly, which is a military air base, a processing point for refugees, and a domestic airport all in one provides a particularly powerful exploration of this subject.

This exhibition runs 11 March - 24 April 2011.

Gallery hours are 11am-5pm Tuesday to Friday, and 12-5pm Sunday.
