Contemporary Australian artists come together in this show drawn from the Artbank collection to consider how we look at reading, and read the act of looking. From slogans, to typography, what we might SMS, or the twist and density of your cursive, these artworks all harness text as a pictorial device. Artists include; Eugenia Raskopoulos, Richard Bell, Newell Harry, Clinton Nain, Angela Cavalieri, Thomas Jeppe, Rose Nolan, Emily Floyd, Peter Dudding, John Demos, Alice Lang, Anthony Johnson, Nasim Nasr and Sarah Contos.
