Contemporary Art On The Road with SAM GEORGE & LISA RADFORD
In 2021, CAOTR will present five workshops, in conjunction with educators from three regional galleries: Horsham Regional Art Gallery, Castlemaine Art Museum and Shepparton Art Museum. The program will also present with Monash University Museum of Art (MUMA) for the first time.
The first part of the program consists of formal presentations by educators from Gertrude Contemporary, Monash University Museum of Art (MUMA), the Victorian Curriculum and Assessment Authority (VCAA) and the host organisations. A presentation and hands-on workshop by a current Gertrude Studio Artist will form the second part of the program.
Sam George and Lisa Radford will present a workshop based in collaborative practices, signals and non-verbal or written language. Working together since 2008, the collaborators use conversation and oral histories to produce works that refer to documentary processes, shared narratives and coded language. You can listen to the artists discussing text and language with Jason Phu on Gertrude Talks, a Digital Projects initiative of Gertrude Contemporary.
Presenters: Sharon Grace Flynn, Gertrude Contemporary; Melissa Bedford, Monash University Museum of Art; Kathryn Hendy-Ekers, Victorian Curriculum and Assessment Authority; and representatives from the partnering galleries and museums.
