Richly layered and vibrant, Atem’s photographs conne… more

Petrina Hicks

Bleached Gothic

27 Sep 2019 – 29 Mar 2020

Greg Semu

The Raft of the Tagata Pasifika (People of the Pacific)

10 Jun – 11 Sep 2016

This exhibition of new large-scale photographic works draws attention to the devastating impact, truth and reality of the colonisation and Christianisation of the Pacific. It issues from Semu’s deep interest in this epoch in human history, which witnessed the catastrophic collision of indigenous tribal worlds and colonial imperialism and the creation of great European history paintings.

The exhibition pivots on Semu’s work with a cast of indigenous actors in the Cook Islands in rest… more

Andreas Gursky

21 Nov 2008 – 22 Feb 2009

Andreas Gursky (born 1955) is one of the world’s leading contemporary international artists. In essence, his photographs are concerned with the experience of life in a globalised world. Through a combination of enormous scale; the most precise pin-sharp detail; and bold use of colour, he systematically represents the individuals place within our complex, fast-paced consumer society.
