Ivan Durrant: Cellophane Silks features a selection of celebrated Caulfield racetrack, horse-racing, jockey and spectator paintings from the mid-1970s by renowned Australian artist Ivan Durrant.
In a career spanning more than five decades, Ivan Durrant has achieved considerable recognition for a fascinating, varied and exceptional creative practice.
Major works from public museum collections and private collections and from Durrant’s personal collection are included. Durrant’s series of dynamic ‘out of focus’ colourful and light-filled horse-racing and jockey from 2012 to 2016 evoke the frenzy, energy, spectacle, and power of horse-racing.
This exhibition captures the artists’ life-long passion for horse- racing and fascination with light and colour.
