EXHIBITION BY YOUNG AUSTRALIAN ARTISTS
7 September - 13 November 2005
Primavera is the MCA's annual and highly-regarded “talent spotting” art event, unveiling talents lying hidden across the country, many of them the stars of the future! It’s a much sought-after opportunity for young artists and a much anticipated event for Australian audiences, each year attracting huge numbers of visitors to the MCA. Primavera offers a perspective that reaches right across contemporary art in Australia, revealing themes and trends that might not otherwise be visible to the general public.
Offering a truly national vision of contemporary art this year, Primavera 2005 includes a very diverse range of artistic styles and backgrounds - and of course signals a new wave of young artists to watch out for. For the first time ever, Primavera – the MCA’s annual exhibition of work by artists 35 and under – will this year include artists from remote areas of Australia alongside those from urban centres. And in keeping with the scope of this year’s show, it is also the first Primavera to tour across Australia including NSW, Victoria and the Northern Territory. Over the last two years the focus has moved from new media to everyday materials and this year features painting, a medium with a long tradition yet endless powers of renewal. Under the direction of guest curator Felicity Fenner Primavera 2005 connects with the well-established genre of painting landscape, which is questioned and re-interpreted by a young generation of artists in response to current political and environmental concerns. Primavera has been a feature of the MCA program since its inception in 1992.
Artists included are: Monika Behrens (NSW), Madeleine Kelly (QLD), Fiona Lowry (NSW), Danie Mellor (ACT), Tom Mùller (WA), Yukultji Napangati (WA/NT), Michelle Ussher (VIC), Pedro Wonaeamirri (NT), Jemima Wyman (QLD).
