Tony Clark: Unsculpted

1 Nov 2024 – 1 Jun 2025

Unsculpted presents a multifaceted overview of one of Australia’s most respected artists. For over four decades, Tony Clark has explored the capacity of painting to test the boundaries between genres and creative disciplines.   

Clark’s paintings reinterpret motifs from the histories of art, architecture and the decorative arts in ongoing bodies of work that repeat and reconfigure familiar themes, building an iterative visual language that is distinctively his own.

Departing from a conventional survey, the exhibition has been developed in collaboration with the artist and focuses on his sustained interest in the representation of sculpture and sculptural relief through painted form.
