Anna Schwartz Gallery will present an exhibition featuring new work and a four-stage installation by leading Australian artist Mike Parr from 1 May – 31 July 2021.
Parr will transform the Gallery throughout the three-month exhibition over a series of four blind performances, creating new installation work. These performances follow on from Towards an Amazonian Black Square, 2019 which was included in Mike Parr’s solo exhibition The Eternal Opening at Carriageworks and Towards a Black Square, 2019, presented by Detached Cultural Organisation in association with Dark Mofo.
In addition to the blind performances, the exhibition will include video, painting, photography and sculpture. The static works will articulate the separate stages of the exhibition.
