Art Forum Series #14: Stephen Haley


Thursday 23 August, 12.30pm

Stephen Haley is a Melbourne based painter and digital media artist. He is also a writer and has worked as a studio lecturer and Art History lecturer at various institutions. He currently holds the position of Graduate Research Coordinator (MFA) at the Victorian College of the Arts. Through a variety of media, the work investigates actual and virtual space and broader contemporary social conditions, often employing 3D modelling software to construct fantastic simulations premised on repetition and difference. More recent work has turned to directly include environmental considerations but still build upon his PhD thesis completed in 2005 that considered the mirror as a defining metaphor and mechanism in shaping contemporary Western space and culture.

Haley has won a number of prestigious art awards and residencies including the Deacons, Graham James/Arts21 Award (1998), the ANZ Visual Art Fellowship (2004), the R&M McGivern Prize for Painting (2006), Australia Council Visual Arts Board studio residency in Los Angeles (2006), Australia Council Visual Arts Board New Work Grant (2009) and a Arts Victoria New Work Grant (2012). He has exhibited widely in Australia and internationally for the past 18 years including exhibitions at the National Gallery of Victoria; Bendigo Art Gallery; 18th Street Arts Centre, Los Angeles; Director’s Lounge Contemporary Art and Media Festival, Berlin; ArtCore Brewery Annex, Los Angeles; Glendale Art College, Los Angeles; and exhibits with Lumas Gallery in Berlin, Paris, New York, Zurich and London.

A survey exhibition of recent work – Somewhere About Now - will be held this year at Glen Eira City Gallery, opening September 26.
