Mike Parr: Deep North
This important artist has been working at the intersection of the personal and political for over 40 years.
Overview
Another show from Mike Parr will be unveiled in June at Anna Schwartz Gallery. This batch of mixed media works on canvas will stir up something that has been repressed. The title ‘Deep North’ has been intentionally left open, but Parr hopes to inspire thinking about Australia’s relationship — or arrangement — with Nauru and Manus Island. Does our political consciousness end at our borders? Does compassion carry across international waters?
Parr has been making art for over 40 years now and is still experimenting with new forms of aesthetic and political engagement. He co-created Australia’s first ARI in the 1970s, pioneered performance art in Sydney and has an extensive list of international accolades.
