curator of
Vivienne Binns:Twenty First Century Paintings
Date
1 April 2004 - 1 May 2004
Place
The Cross Art Projects, 8 Llankelly Place, Kings Cross, Sydney, 2011, Australia
Description

Binns is a Sydney artist par excellence but she remains an iconoclast. For Twenty First Century Paintings, her first solo exhibition in Sydney in nine years, curator Merryn Gates selected the tour de force work Maelstrom, 2002, as the centerpiece. Orchestrating elements of expressionism and formalism, this grand canvas highlights Binns’s embrace of the old and the new and her unexpected sources and collaborations.
