Exhibitions
Cubism & Australian Art:
24 November - 8 April 2010
Cubism & Australian Art, one of the most ambitious and extensive exhibitions Heide has undertaken, shows the impact of the revolutionary and transformative movement of Cubism on Australian art from the early twentieth century to the present day. It uncovers a little-known yet compelling history through works by over eighty artists, including key examples of international Cubism drawn from Australian collections — by André Lhote, Albert Gleizes, Fernand Léger, Alexander Archipenko, Ben Nicholson and others — and nine decades of Australian modern and contemporary art that demonstrate a local evolution of cubist ideas.
