SUMMER SEASON
1 December 2012 – 17 February 2013
The Australian Centre for Photography is pleased to announce its 2013 Summer Season. The season will comprise of four exhibitions by Ann Shelton, Robert Besanko, René Norwie and collaborating artists Darragh O'Callaghan and David Sudmalis.
Ann Shelton confronts the complexity of historical memory in the series in a forest. René Norwie explores contemporary motherhood through her photographic practice, and the immersive installation Aphasia draws together photomedia, sculpture, sound, music and performance. Over a twelve-month period, ACP will be dedicating a gallery to explore a single image of Robert Besanko's work, which has recently been digitised. The image will change monthly, with an original photograph and a new enlarged digital print version for audiences to discover.
