Jim Lambie: Zero Concerto

Overview

Do you remember the maze of brightly coloured vinyl tape on the floor of the MCA at the 19th Biennale of Sydney? That was Glaswegian artist Jim Lambie. He creates hypnotic site-specific installations using a broad range of found materials. Zero Concerto, opening on August 13 at Roslyn Oxley9 Gallery, will incorporate potato sacks, bicycle wheels and more of his trademark vinyl tape.

Lambie compels his viewers to consider new dimensions and modes of perceptions, responding to the architecture of each exhibition space. He produces hallucinatory installations that seem to pulsate with energy. If you were to look through an origami kaleidoscope, it might come close to what Lambie’s practice is all about.

Head along to the opening party on August 13 from 6pm.
