"Robert Macpherson: A Comprehensive Survey of Work"
2001-07-13 until 2001-10-21
Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney
Sydney, ,
AU Australia
The most comprehensive survey of the work of
Robert Macpherson, one of Australia's most
revered contemporary artists. Macpherson's work
is bold, accessible, humorous and beautiful. Born in
Queensland in 1937, Macpherson's art utilises the
rich and colourful culture of his rural childhood and
the high-art sensibilities of the great American
artists he discovered in magazines and books in
his youth.
The language of roadside signage, fruit and
vegetable shops, street hobos and car enthusiasts
is expressed in Macpherson's paintings,
installations and sculptural works, which are
regarded highly by international curators and
collectors while remaining intensely local and
distinctly Australian. IMAGE:
