Book for the lecture only component of our monthly Lunch & Lecture.
Hear from Reuben Keehan, Curator, Contemporary Asian Art, QAGOMA for a lecture exploring one of the most memorable contributions to the inaugural Asia-Pacific Triennial in 1993, Shigeo Toya’s Woods III 1991-92. The artwork, which was one of the first large-scale installations to enter the Gallery’s Collection, is currently on display at QAG as part of ‘Woods III: Inscriptions and Excavations’ where it is displayed in dialogue with contemporary Japanese art to draw out ideas of inscription and excavation in Toya’s practice. Featuring works by Lee Ufan, Tokihiro Sato, Yoko Asakai and Yuta Nakamura, the presentation explores Toya’s approach to mark-making and giving form to the invisible as they relate to creativity, time and the natural and constructed world. Upgrade your ticket to join us for delicious two course lunch after the lecture.
