80 x 120 cm

Come join us this friday night (30/4/10) for the opening of:

Multiple will include a range of new works of varying styles and mediums. The largest work in the show, Double-Vision clocks in at just over 4 meters wide and portrays a twisting, turning vision of an urban landscape made by engraving large black laminate panels. Photographic pieces entitled Flatscapes picture Canberra landscapes covered by graphic, geometric shapes that seemingly continue infinitely into the background. Supermolets are a series of printed aluminium panels which show us an imaginary world filled with clusters of strangle impossible buildings –

About the artist:

Richard Blackwell is a recent graduate from the ANU’s Printmedia+Drawing Department. His work has been featured in shows around the country, including exhibitions at the Perth Institute of Contemporary Art in early 2009 and more recently group shows at Flinders Lane Gallery in Melbourne and at Canberra Contemporary Art Space’s annual emerging artists show BLAZE:4. Multiple is Richard’s first solo exhibition for 2010, following on from his previous solo effort – showing along side Fernando do Campo at M16 Artspace withEnvelope.

In 2009 Richard was awarded a ‘New Work’ grant by the Australia Council for the Arts and will be displaying the results in a solo show titled Grotto at M16 Artspace later in the year. Richard is also looking forward to solo shows at EC-Gallery in Chicago and at Flinders Lane Gallery in 2011.
