Re/Collections | WA State Art Collection
AGWA is thrilled to announce Re/Collections: a suite of exhibitions reimagined to celebrate works in the WA State Art Collection.
As Western Australia’s greatest visual art asset, the prized Collection aims to empower visitors to understand the world — old, new, unknown — creatively. Re/Collections is an extension of this objective. Expertly curated, the exhibitions have been woven together to create a rich tapestry of cultures, states, moments, and ideas, both here at home and farther afield. Far from the conventional chronological displays of the past, Re/Collections allows audiences to consider, reconsider and consider again.
Özgür Kar | GOOD NIGHT
Lie flat and take a break from relentless living
Presented by the Simon Lee Foundation Institute of Contemporary Asian Art, Özgür Kar's first show in Australia is a multi-screen audiovisual installation which contemplates the cynicism and fragility of this present moment.
Working across video, sound, performance, and installation, Özgür Kar’s practice is an exploration of contemporary existentialism. Focusing on the interconnections between digital media and the human body, Kar’s installations feature black and white, minimally animated characters trapped within television screens who languorously deliver tales of desire and despair.
