Congratulations to Meg Walters, who is included in the upcoming show ‘Alternating The Cube’ at The Museum of Art and Culture Lake Macquarie. The exhibition celebrates the vibrancy of local talent in Newcastle. The exhibition will open on the 10th August, until the 13th October.
"Alternating the Cube investigates how models of the Artist Run Space or ‘ARI’s’ are a distinctive alternative to the art institution - and a necessary step for many artists to gain critique, grow and contribute to the fold.
What do ARIs say about a community, its infrastructure and willingness to support these critical spaces of exploration? How do we find a balance between culture and gentrification? The ecology of the ARI and its lifespan may be short or long and is dependant of reliability of space and stability of rent and support.
Alternating the Cube will present work from artists connected with spaces directed by artists that operate across the region and invites a contemplation of the lifecycle of an artist" - The Museum of Art and Culture Lake Macquarie.
Recognised artwork (above): Déjà Vécu, Oil on Linen, Natural Oak Frame, 115 x 135cm. This work will be released through Otomys in October.
