Neoterica brings together new works from 20 mid-career South Australian artists in a celebration of their enduring contribution to our visual arts landscape. Neoterica opens March 1 to April 14, also in the Adelaide Festival, following on as the second iteration from Neoteric 2022
Exhibiting artists: Eleanor Alice, Jenn Brazier, Fran Callen, Makeda Duong, Deirdre Feeney, Keith Giles, Gail Hocking, Sam Howie, Matt Huppatz, Simone Kennedy, Bernadette Klavins, Kate Kurucz, Riza Manalo, Sue Ninham, Sonja Porcaro,Tristan Louth-Robins, Jess Taylor, Cassie Thring, Sarah Tickle, and Raymond Zada.
Neoterica is not driven by a theme, the artists are selected for the interplay between their works, what each brings to the exhibition, and their track record in creating compelling and visually stimulating work in a range of approaches.
Housed in a unique semi- industrial space in the heart of the Adelaide CBD, the works are ambitious, bold, experimental, personal, reflective, environmental - each artist pushing themselves in their chosen medium, exploring their current motivations with persistence, experimentation, scale, repetition, and deep investment. The exhibition is accompanied by performances, talks and a catalogue with responses to the works from 20 South Australian writers.
This independent artist-led major survey exhibition celebrates the innovation, depth and strength of artistic talent in South Australia.
We look forward to welcoming you to Neoterica
