NEW07 offered the look of love, the disappearance of things, masculine mythologies, the aesthetic of the pathetic, fractured identities, a skating incident … and more. ACCA’s fifth annual exhibition showcasing emerging Australian artists indicted a shift in artistic practice: NEW06 showed a highpoint in the referencing of early 60s minimalism, while NEW07 predicted a return to the low-tech aesthetic of recycling found objects and a reinterpretation of materialism.
Exhibiting Artists: Damiano Bertoli, Christian Capurro, Nick Devlin, Claire Healy and Sean Cordeiro, Anastasia Klose, Brendan Lee
Commissioning Curator: Juliana Engberg
