Exhibition Visits, Tours and Workshops

Enrich your students’ learning journey with Buxton Contemporary’s dynamic exhibitions tours and visit programs made just for schools.

Current Exhibition | Tony Clark: Unsculpted

Join us from November 2024 until April 2025 for this extensive solo exhibition.

Tony Clark: Unsculpted is the most extensive presentation of Clark’s practice since 1998. The exhibition takes a closer look at Tony Clark’s sustained interest in the representation of sculpture and sculptural relief through painted form. This presents a unique perspective on the artist’s prolific practice, characterised by a sequential approach to image-making: Clark’s paintings borrow from the histories of art, architecture, theatre design and decorative arts, often subverting hierarchies between these disciplines.

The exhibition is curated by Jacqueline Doughty, Head Curator, Art Museums, University of Melbourne, in close consultation with the artist, the exhibition brings together over 100 works spanning a 40 year period, including a number of new works and major works on loan from public and private collections.
