Description

This exhibition is a rare opportunity to consider nearly twenty years in Australian art from the perspective of the artist Raafat Ishak, who began exhibiting in Melbourne in the early 1990s. Ishak’s involvement in many activities including: artist-run initiatives, collaborations with friends, site-specific projects, small-scale painting, and art that comes off the stretcher onto walls and floor, indicate many of the key characteristics of his generation. In this exhibition, Ishak responds specifically to the architecture of the museum.
