Joshua Webb : New Violence

Recipient of the Galerie Düsseldorf / Curtin University Post Graduate Scholarship for 2006 and the prestigious Australian SAMSTAG Scholarship for 2008, Joshua Webb returns to Australia from Europe for this his first solo exhibition at Galerie Düsseldorf.

This latest exhibition, 'New Violence' at Galerie Düsseldorf, mirrors his recent exhibition of the same name at the Meet factory, Prague, Czech Republic. This latest installment of New Violence continues a cross-continental investigation concerned with global politics in the age of economic imperialism. The exhibition takes as its starting point the shifting ideological history of the Czech Republic and then moves abroad to explore the frontiers of new capitalism that are lying dormant in tomorrow's global giants. Ultimately Webb's new exhibition acts as a speculative landscape that maps the potential for metamorphosis between dystopian dynasties.

Pamela Gaunt : Errant Abstractions

In her third solo exhibition at Galerie Düsseldorf, Pamela Gaunt continues to draw her imagery from the decorative lexicon.

By isolating and repositioning motifs selected for their anthropomorphic possibilities she provides the viewer with meaningful experiences through unfamiliar contexts and contemporary translations of proverbial forms.
