Roslyn Oxley9 Gallery is pleased to present 'Juxtapositions', an exhibition of new paintings by Gareth Sansom.

Gareth Sansom’s artistic career spans over 60 years and he is widely acknowledged as one of the most original and exciting Australian painters of his generation. Eschewing his traditional love of montage, the artist relies on eccentric mark-making and belligerent colouration. Sansom’s luridly coloured and densely layered paintings explore physical, psychological and material transformation; they begin as one thing but swiftly morph into another. In his practice Sansom rallies against his own control and consciousness in his work – he aspires to constantly surprise and challenge himself as an artist. Sansom’s psychological landscapes explore themes including popular culture, cinema and sex. ⁠

⁠Opening reception: Friday, 17 May from 6–8pm

Exhibition dates: 17 May – 8 June 2024 ⁠

Gareth Sansom has been represented by Roslyn Oxley9 Gallery since 1982.⁠
