Abstract

This eclectic selection of works embraces print in a dizzying array of forms: moving image and digital print, 'found' works cut from magazines, pieces that journal the passing of days and volumes revealing print's link with idea, word and story. Drawn from the gallery's collection, the assembled works are inquiring, anarchic, gentle and joyful. They reveal Australian print culture as an art form and a cultural phenomenon always restless and forever in flux. [Gallery publicity].
