This major exhibition surveys the career of renowned Melbourne based artist Dean Bowen over the past 15 years through the selection of key works from the artist’s studio including paintings, bronze sculpture and works on paper.
As Louise Bellamy says: “Bowen’s work is about real things –the every day – an adventure with no beginning, middle or end. Often devoid of morality or judgement, a story of precious moments captured in colourful places and sites.
“It is not surprising, therefore, that major themes Bowen constantly visits include the city, the country, the suburbs, the human figure, birds, other animals, night skies, the working person and self-portraits.”
