| Summary |
Annotation. Some turn the table on modernist primitivism and explore its specific local histories, reworking the legacies of colonialism; some make reparative gestures, attracted to what joins cultures or communities rather than what divides; while others sidestep the usual decorum around the subject and provoke questions about how we relate to cultures outside our own. Within today's relentless focus on the `now, many of the works in 'Future Primitive' move forward and back between past and future, going back to origins, whether ancestral, animal, or cultural, in an attempt to find out how to live better in a world in crisis or to question its values. Participating artists: Daniel Boyd, Janet Burchill & Jennifer McCamley, Sarah Contos, Mikala Dwyer, Graham Fletcher, David Griggs, Fiona Hall, Newell Harry, Siri Hayes, Brendan Huntley, Jess Johnson, Narelle Jubelin, Dylan Martorell, Alasdair McLuckie, Sanne Mestrom, TV Moore, Michelle Nikou, Ricky Swallow, Rohan Wealleans. This 103 page full colour exhibition catalogue features essays by Anne Stephen, Andrew McNamara and Helen Hughes. Edited by Linda Michael. Published in 2013 by Heide Museum of Modern Art. |
