Centre for Contemporary Photography April 2015 Exhibitions
Five brand new shows for lovers of photography.
Overview
The CCP has five exciting new exhibitions opening this week, which gives you five excellent reasons to drop by to view some world-class photography. In Gallery One, Kiron Robinson’s latest exhibition, We Told Ourselves We Needed Separate Beds To Sleep, will be on display. Images are either flattened, scanned or re-photographed to create new images — testing intriguing relationships between the originals. In Gallery Two, animator Dave Jones and interdisciplinary artist Steven Rhall have joined forces to respond to the Australian Grains Genebank for In Debt: Saving Seeds.
In Gallery Three, Lift From The Top explores ways in which sculpture and photography intersect in contemporary art practice. It features work from both local and international artists, including Paul Adair, Fleur van Dodewaard, Andrew Hazewinkel, Arini Byng and Georgia Hutchinson, Stephanie Lagarde and Stein Ronning, and is curated by Laura Lantieri and Sarah Wall. Gallery Four contains Sara Oscar’s From Here To Eternity, fuelled by the innuendo from stills of romantic films. Finally, for those who can’t get enough photography, there's also Greg Moncrieff’s work California Revisited presented in the CCP’s Night Projection Window.
