Lyon Housemuseum’s inaugural exhibition ‘ENTER’ opens in Melbourne on the 16th of this month and continues until 15 July. The show comprises newly commissioned works, which challenge the tradition and constraints of the ‘white cube’. Audiences will experience the dynamic intersection of art, space, the museum and the viewer’s intervention with works by Brook Andrew, Ry David Bradley, FFIXXED studios x James Deutsher, Shaun Gladwell, nova Milne, Kate Mitchell, Callum Morton, Dan Moynihan, Baden Pailthorpe, Kenzee Patterson, Patricia Piccinini, Ian Strange, Esther Stewart, Kynan Tan, Min Wong and Constanze Zikos.
Conceived in 2009 by Yueji and Corbett Lyon, the new space will be open six days a week and present exhibitions and public programming with five gallery zones, a shop, café and sculpture garden. Corbett commented ‘Although a small crucible, our museum’s ambitions are great, and our intentions adventurous.’
