NEW AUSTRALIAN PRINTMAKING
Featuring TIM MAGUIRE
The Ian Potter Centre: NGV Australia, Fed Square
13 May 22 – 11 Sep 22
Open 10am–5pm daily
Featuring groundbreaking prints by Tim Maguire , New Australian Printmaking at NGV Australia launches the work created by these artists during the Australian Print Workshop Artist Fellowship program.
Established by the Australian Print Workshop (APW), this major fellowship program is the most significant of its kind in Australia and was awarded annually between 2017 and 2021. The Fellowship enabled these leading Australian artists to research, develop and create a new body of work in the print medium.
In a series of vibrant colour intaglio prints produced during his fellowship in 2020–21, Tim Maguire (above) has taken his recent body of work Dice Abstracts to new ground. Deriving from six simple charcoal drawings and using only the three primary colours cyan, magenta and yellow, the composition of each print was determined by the roll of dice – resulting in an extraordinary and unexpected range of colour combinations.
The exhibition also provides audiences with a fascinating insight into the collaborative process of making prints through supplementary material, including printing plates, proofs and filmed documentary footage of the artists and printers in the studio.
This exhibition has been organised by the National Gallery of Victoria and the Australian Print Workshop.
