The Art Gallery of New South Wales is hosting a group exhibition featuring recent work by Australian and international photographers titled “New matter, recent forms of photography.” The exhibition is current until February 19, 2017.Drawn from the Gallery’s collection, this exhibition features artists who expand the limits of photographic representation. The selected works resist the category of the purely representational. They experiment with the abstraction of form and acknowledge illusion and artifice as inherent to the medium. Exposing fissures or gaps in the image that either camouflage the subject or render it illegible, they offer new ways of reading and interpreting photography itself. The artists – most of whom are in the early stages of their careers – include Jacqueline Ball, Walead Beshty, Matthew Brandt, Danica Chappell, Zoë Croggon, Christopher Day, Charles Dennington, Cherine Fahd, Deb Mansfield, Todd McMillan, Luke Parker, Kate Robertson, James Tylor and Justine Varga.The exhibition is on view at the Art Gallery of New South Wales, Art Gallery Rd, The Domain 2000, Sydney, Australia.For details, visit: https://www.artgallery.nsw.gov.au/exhibitions/new-matter/Click on the slideshow for a sneak peek of the exhibition.
