Group show
11 May - 3 June 2011
This exhibition examines some of the contemporary works in the Government Art Collection, highlighting acquisition strategies such as site-specificity and commissioning. A selected group of contemporary artists, who are included in the Collection, are invited to re-engage with their Collection works. Although these desired artworks are absent – located elsewhere – the display creates a space for each artist’s further inquiry into their works held in the Government Art Collection.
Exhibiting Artists: Langlands & Bell, Catherine Bertola, Layla Curtis, Jeremy Deller, Lothar Gotz, Andrew Grassie and Eva Weinmayr
