Curated by Barry Pearce, the extensive survey exhibition ‘Geoff Wilson: Interrogated Landscape’ recognises the lifetime achievement of this exceptional South Australian artist – whose long career has, until now, remained largely uncelebrated in the public eye.
Featuring over seventy works, including: paintings, works on paper and sketchbooks, ‘Interrogated Landscape’ captures Geoff Wilson’s movement from watercolours in the 1940s into his semi-abstraction period in the 1960s and then his masterful modernist compositions up to 2013.
The exhibition coincides with SALA celebrations and the lead up to University of South Australia’s 25th anniversary in 2016.
