Beneath the Sur­face, Behind the Scene

Until 22 Octo­ber 2023
Hei­de Muse­um of Mod­ern Art, Melbourne

Beneath the Sur­face, Behind the Scenes brings into dia­logue a selec­tion of sig­nif­i­cant works by con­tem­po­rary Latin Amer­i­can and Aus­tralian artists. It explores the ways that art can take our imag­i­na­tions beyond the lim­i­ta­tions of the known world and the veil of visu­al appear­ances.

The exhi­bi­tion con­sid­ers art as a gen­er­a­tive force and as a com­plex form of lan­guage, inves­ti­ga­tion and the­atre. Ideas unfold simul­ta­ne­ous­ly in real and imag­ined space and time unearthing and giv­ing rise to deep­er forms of knowl­edge and prompt­ing alter­na­tive insights and per­cep­tions. Artists in the exhi­bi­tion embrace insta­bil­i­ty, forms of era­sure and new realms of pos­si­bil­i­ty, crit­i­cal­ly engag­ing with unac­knowl­edged or dif­fi­cult his­to­ries, as well as impacts on our chang­ing soci­ety and nat­ur­al envi­ron­ments.

Par­tic­i­pat­ing artists include: Alexan­der Após­tol (Venezuela), Tatiana Blass (Brazil), Lau­ren Brin­cat (Aus­tralia), Chris­t­ian Capurro (Aus­tralia), Ele­na Dami­ani (Peru), Mar­lon de Azam­bu­ja (Brazil), Matías Duville (Argenti­na), Glo­ria Sebastián Fier­ro (Colom­bia), Xime­na Gar­ri­do-Lec­ca (Peru), Arturo Hernán­dez Alcázar (Mex­i­co) Nadia Hernán­dez (Venezuela/​Australia), André Komat­su (Brazil), Lil­iana Porter (Argenti­na), Mar­ilá Dar­d­ot, (Brazil), Nicholas Man­gan (Aus­tralia), Jorge Mag­yaroff (Colom­bia), Hay­ley Mil­lar Bak­er, Gunditjmara/​Djabwurrung (Aus­tralia) Este­fanía Peñafiel Loaiza (Ecuador/​France), Berna Reale (Brazil) and Steven Ren­dall (Aus­tralia).
