Current Exhibition
ARTIST OF THE MONTH FEBRUARY | JAN VAN DIJK
Jan Van Dijk shows extensively around Australia. He released his artist book 'Jan Van Dijk: A Reverse Chronology 2008 - 2006' and is included in many significant collections. His subject choices are broad, but the execution is acute, and always exciting. His most recent works focus on the 'Carnival phenomenon' - excerpt from media release:
Wheels of thrills and wonder take the viewer into a place somewhere between lost childhoods and imagined futures, complete with tacky advertising and bad carny paint. A sly poke at the ride of life - pursuits and desires may lose their novelty value but that doesn’t halt the revolutions of the wheel. It spins on and on like the repetitive patterns of life and the first ride is always free.
