Langford 120 (named after its address in North Melbourne) is a large light filled space with space to step back and view the art. In April / May Langford 120 has been participating in Abstraction 2018 in collaboration with Stephen Mclaughlin Gallery, Five Walls Project, Justin Art House Museum and Deakin University. The abstract artists mind often works a little differently to mine, abstract challenges and sometimes just bemuses me completely. It is good to step outside your comfort zone and be challenged. I found the artist statements and sometimes I thought yes – I get that and sometimes I thought hmmmm!) That’s OK – there were some great works cleverly executed – from the fluid and organic to geometric, linear precision. Too many artists for me to capture them all here – go visit the gallery.
Artists included:
- Robin Kingston
- Linda Pickering
- Fiona Halse
- Christopher Heathcote
- Anya Pesce (this exhibition included a vibrant red artwork from her Fantastic Plastik series)
- Tim Bass
- Kate MacKay (creates lovely colourful, happy works)
and many more.
