Avoiding the Void

Joan Rodriquez_Isolationsmaller2.jpg

Avoiding the Void features works from the Cunningham Dax Collection which reflect and engage with existential ideas and concerns.

The exhibition invites viewers to contemplate the insightful ways in which the creators of these works have grappled with difficult questions that are ordinarily avoided: Who am I? Do I belong? Why am I suffering? What is the purpose?

This exhibition includes paintings, drawings, sculpture and multimedia by a range of artists including Graeme Doyle, Richard McLean, David Rellim and Joan Rodriquez. Works made by inpatients of psychiatric hospitals also feature.

Open 10am to 4pm Wed to Fri, 1 to 5pm Sat
