Overview
After spending 12 years in New York, Australian multimedia artist Tracey Moffatt returned home to continue her creative journey. Spirited showcases the result, the Gallery of Modern Art compiling her most recent, locally crafted work into an exhibition that explores how we inhabit places and are inhabited by them.
Commencing with an opening keynote conversation and discussion tour, the exhibition premieres Moffatt’s major new video work, Art Calls 2014, in which she plays a TV talk show host. Also featuring is Spirit landscapes 2013, comprised of five photographic series and a digital photo frame.
Alongside her own pieces, Moffatt has chosen 13 works from the QAGOMA collection by artists including Doreen Reid Nakamarra, William Robinson, John Pule, Ian Fairweather, Simryn Gill and Bridget Riley. Each complements Moffatt’s contemplation of the connection between the landscape and the mind and spirit, as does the specially selected screenings of John Ford’s celebrated 1952 film, The Quiet Man.
