INSIDE THE GALLERY (AUSTRALIA) - GRACE CROWLEY & RALPH BALSON
Painting exclusively together for many decades, Grace Crowley & Ralph Balson’s dynamic exchange extended and challenged both artists. They respectively produced some of the earliest and most important works of abstract art in the country. Their collaborative approach to painting – the sharing of ideas, techniques and materials – resulted in two significant bodies of work that broke new ground in Australian art.
By presenting the work of Crowley and Balson together, this exhibition at the Ian Potter Centre: NGV Australia invites audiences to trace the shared influences and harmonies between their works, as well as to appreciate the centrality of collaboration to their individual practices. The exhibition comprises more than 75 paintings and works on paper, with some of these never-before-seen by the Australian public.This episode features the curator of the exhibition Beckett Rozentals.
