Photography and architecture come together in a new exhibition, Black Lines 2016, opening in March at Sydney's Black Eye Gallery.
Black Lines 2016 features a selection of Australia and New Zealand’s leading fine art and commercial architectural photographers.
Part of Art Month, the Black Lines 2016 exhibition showcases work by David Manley, Chris Round, Ross Honeysett, Dianna Wells, Tom Evangelidis, Tim Griffiths, Peter Clarke, Rob Tuckwell, Tom Blackford, among others.
Moving beyond the highly polished images of commercial architectural photography, Black Lines 2016 surveys a wide selection of photographs of the built environment, turning a critical eye on places and buildings often considered banal.
Highlights includes Chris Round’s exploration of the post-apocalyptic interior of an abandoned greenhouse at Sydney’s Royal Botanic Gardens (top right). The iconic glass pyramid was recently demolished in May 2015.
The exhibition was co-curated by Francesca Johanson and runs from March 15 – April 3, with its official opening on March 17, 6 - 8pm (RSVP anna@blackeyegallery.com.au).
The Black Eye Gallery is located at 3/138 Darlinghurst Road, Darlinghurst and is open Tuesday to Sunday 10am-6pm.
