THESE DAYS

Curated by Sebastian Goldspink

6 March - 28 March, 2020

Opening reception: Friday 6 March, 6-8 PM

COMA is pleased to present These Days, curated by Sebastian Goldspink, a group exhibition focused on painting juxtaposed with archival Video 8 elements taken from the curator's own childhood.

Painting is about lots of things but perhaps fundamentally it is about problems. It takes a very specific mindset to grapple with all the physical and conceptual rigours required to render an idea visually. This exhibition brings together a seemingly disparate group of young Australian painters who are united in their passion for embracing the challenges of painting, of working through the problems. Painting is a great game that is ultimately between the artist and the surface. This exhibition is idiosyncratic. It is a selection that is based on threads and connections between artists. These Days looks at what is happening now but also what has passed.
