Abstract

In 2007 Melbourne-based Chilean artist Juan Davila featured prominently across all three venues at Documenta XII, one of the world's great surveys of contemporary art, held every five years in the German city of Kassel. It was a global nod of respect for a practice centred on frank investigations into sexual and personal identity politics, yet Davila's work is seldom seen in Queensland. This exhibition, organised by Griffith Artworks will survey key images across the field of graphics, beginning in the late 1970s through to 2009. [Gallery media, 2009].
