Ben Quilty/ His art practice and career

Описание: Ben Quilty reflects on his artwork, practice and career at the opening of his exhibition ‘Quilty’ currently at the Gallery of Modern Art (GOMA) until 13 October 2019. Quilty is in conversation with friend and exhibition curator Lisa Slade, Assistant Director, Artistic Programs, Art Gallery of South Australia.

‘Quilty’ is the first major survey exhibition in a decade of one of Australia’s most acclaimed contemporary artists, Ben Quilty. The exhibition extends from Quilty’s early reflections on the initiation rituals performed by young Australian men to his experience as an official war artist in Afghanistan and his campaign to save the lives of Bali Nine pair. It also includes his revisions of the Australian landscape, and raw, intimate portraits of himself, his family and his friends.
