New Psychedelia
Drawing on the aesthetics of 60s and 70s psychedelia, the UAM’s New Psychedelia exhibition is a contemporary take on the idea.
Overview
Do you live for lava lamps? Is Austin Powers right up your alley? Do you revere the odd rave party? Psychadeliaphiles near and far will be scintillated by news that there is a very cool new exhibition showing at the University Art Museum at UQ.
Drawing on the aesthetics of 60s and 70s psychedelia, the UAM’s New Psychedelia exhibition is a contemporary take on the idea, exploring the ‘new psychedelia’ that has emerged in contemporary art as an off-shoot of the rave party, as well as the aesthetics of virtual reality and the ‘consensual hallucination of cyberspace’.
The exhibition displays new acquisitions to The University of Queensland art collection as well as exhibiting works from the existing collection in new light. This includes work from Nathan Gray, Irene Hanenbergh, Brendan Huntley, Madeleine Kelly, Tim Maguire, Laith McGregor (yes, that’s biro), Roy McIvor, Kate Shaw, Jemima Wyman, Dale Frank and Sandra Selig.
