Abstract

Melbourne based artists Raafat Ishak and Tom Nicholson first began exploring shared aspects of their practices in 2003. Proposition For a Banner March and a Black Cube Hot Air Balloon is the resulting exhibition project that has evolved out of these exchanges, and will present objects and ideas relating to a propositional future public event: a simultaneous banner march and hot air balloon flight through Shepparton. Ishak and Nicholson have previously explored this concept in propositional forms, through a number of public actions, exhibitions and sculptural forms. Proposition For a Banner March and a Black Cube Hot Air Balloon will expand this aspect of their practices to incorporate the unique and rich history of Shepparton. The exhibition will feature multiple elements including the display of project archive material, a series of talks and dinners in the Art Museum, and the development of a new, site-specific installation.
