Join Benalla Art Gallery, artist Ron Robertson-Swann, and Charles Nodrum for the launch of Illusion and Gravity: 1960s and 70s painting and sculpture from the artist’s collection.
Drawn directly from the artist’s collection, Illusion and Gravity provides a rare insight into the early painting and sculptural output of one of Australia’s most significant and enduring abstractionists, Ron Robertson-Swann.
Featured paintings are drawn from the same period as those exhibited in the seminal National Gallery of Victoria exhibition, The Field, and similarly illustrate the artist’s interest in the physical dynamics and sculptural properties of painting.
Ron Robertson-Swann: Illusion and Gravity will tour to Charles Nodrum Gallery from 8 to 29 March 2025
