Anna Schwartz Gallery will open on 2nd February 2022 with a group exhibition structured as a series of large-scale solo video installations that will evolve over time until 7 May 2022. The exhibition will feature the work of leading video artists including Alberta Whittle, Cyprien Gaillard, Sarah Morris, Haris Epaminonda, Yael Bartana, James Nguyen & Victoria Pham and Hiwa K.

Peripheral Vision will inaugurate video works in Australia that, collectively, provide a contemporary view of the world from a variety of perspectives. Curated by Lewis Gilbert, creative director at A Vibe Called Tech, and Tania Doropoulos, the selection of works was influenced by the last occasions they were physically able to view art together, and their subsequent and ongoing digital/virtual exchange and dialogue since borders closed. An exchange that was able to be maintained through video, which has become a primary medium for us to engage new work and its ideas.
