Partnershipping: Artists in Conversation with Curator Pat Hoffie

-
7 December 2019

Join Curator Pat Hoffie and artists from the exhibition The Partnershipping Project in conversation.

THE PARTNERSHIPPING PROJECT
(Official opening: 6pm Friday 6 Dec 2019)

Featuring artists from the Lismore region: Penny Evans, Hiromi Tango, Karla Dickens (with contributor Leigh Arnold) and Aris Prabawa; the Townsville region: Gail Mabo, Anthony Vanghoua Vue; and Tasmania: Selena de Carvalho, David Mangenner Gough

The Partnershipping Project was conceived to link regional artists, regional galleries and regional audiences to ask: ‘Does Place Matter’?

The result is an exhibition, curated by Pat Hoffie with associate curator Rosemary Miller, that is redeveloped in each regional location as new artists join. The project has become a series of iterations that explore the effects of ‘globalised’ thinking and the impact on changing relationships to ‘place’.
