The Kluge-Ruhe Aboriginal Art Collection presents Brian Robinson: tithuyil (moving with the rhythm of the stars), a selection of prints and sculptural works by Brian Robinson. The graphic style in Robinson's practice combines his Torres Strait Islander heritage with a strong passion for experimentation, both in theoretical approach and medium, as well as crossing the boundaries between reality and fantasy. The results combine styles as diverse as graffiti art through to intricate relief carvings and construction sculpture echoing images of Torres Strait cultural motifs, objects and activity.
Robinson is visiting Charlottesville through March 8 as a resident artist. This exhibition and residency have been supported by Australia Council for the Arts, Mossenson Galleries and the Embassy of Australia.
