ART#1


Regional Tour
17 April 2010 – 30 May 2010

A series of exhibitions will be exhibited concurrently at three regional Victorian galleries from April.

ART 1 is a new initiative aimed to bring the latest new works from Melbourne’s leading contemporary art space to regional Victoria.

Works from ACCA’s pool of artists and their innovative commissions programs will be displayed concurrently at the Shepparton Art Gallery, Wangaratta Exhibitions Gallery and Benalla Art Gallery from April 17.



Wangaratta Exhibitions Gallery will show a selection of video works from some of Australia’s most exciting young video artists including Shaun Gladwell, Anastasia Klose, Laresa Kosloff, David Rosetzky, Darren Sylvester and Daniel von Sturmer.

Shepparton Art Gallery will exhibit a program of works from Nick Devlin and Justine Khamara, and two new site-specific installations specially commissioned for the gallery by Nathan Gray and Pat Foster & Jen Berean.

Benalla Art Gallery will show young Melbourne artist Brendan Lee’s provocative Proving Ground – a major audio-visual installation which reflects on Australian notions of mateship, camaraderie and belief systems. The installation is made up of discarded car tyres.
