"Racetrack"
2002-04-25 until 2002-06-03
City Gallery Wellington, 360-Michael Hirschfeld Gallery
Wellington, , NZ

Paekakariki artist Gary Freemantle's painting installation is a meditation on driving, looping in a continuous stretch around the gallery walls as if it were a slot car set, with the state highway rural landscape flattening out into one continuous North Island circuit.

The stretches of country between destinations have been a constant subject in Freemantle's painting. Racetrack develops these concerns, exploring driving as a space for contemplation - for thinking about our lives while catching glimpses into the lives of others.
