Listing: A Natural World
This thematic exhibition will investigate how contemporary artists engage with and portray the natural world. Our thinking about nature — or the natural world — is political and cultural. Ideas of nature and natural are deeply embedded in our memories, histories and mythologies. The human impact or intervention on the landscape and natural environment, our complex and fragile relationship with the landscape, as well as the appreciation and celebration of the beauty of nature are explored in the exhibition through diverse practices spanning photography, painting, video, installation, sculpture, jewellery and objects. Established and emerging contemporary Australian artists are featured in the exhibition including Marian Drew, Maria Fernanda Cardoso, Juan Ford, Marian Hosking, Ash Keating, David Keeling, Janet Laurence, David Stephenson and Anne Zahalka.
