Experience PRISM
Join us for the opening celebration of PRISM, a group exhibition showcasing the work of eight local Melbourne artists and celebrating the diversity of contemporary Australian art.
Inspired by the way a prism reveals the full spectrum of light, unfolding into a multitude of colours and facets, the exhibition celebrates the many ways artists see, interpret and express the world. Each artwork offers a distinct perspective, creating a rich conversation through colour, line, pattern, form, materiality, ideas and artistic voices. Together, these diverse practices invite audiences to experience contemporary Australian art through multiple ways of seeing.
Featuring works by Elizabeth Gleeson, Gerard Russo, Peter Brook, Mathew Simpson, Fiona Johnston, Keith Ross, Doris (Xinzhi) Li and Regina Kaluzny, PRISM presents a carefully curated collection of painting and mixed media that celebrates the breadth, diversity and vitality of contemporary Australian art.
Whether you are an art collector, artist, architect, designer, student or simply curious about contemporary Australian art, PRISM offers an opportunity to discover new work, meet the artists and experience one of Melbourne’s newest creative destinations.
Opening Celebration
