Tom Nicholson in 'Liquid Archive', Monash University Museum of Art, Melbourne
19 Jul 2012
Work by Tom Nicholson is included in Liquid Archive, a group exhibition at the Monash University Museum of Art, Melbourne.
Liquid Archive traces a series of connections between traditional notions of the archive, emerging technologies and questions around the ways in which memory and personal experience are incorporated into larger histories. The exhibition explores how contemporary artists are working with the archive as well as seeking to understand how technological and cultural transformation impact upon knowledge and memory.
Curated by MUMA’s Senior Curator Geraldine Barlow, Liquid Archive brings invited projects together with key works from the Monash University Collection, and features the work of eight international artists/artist collectives and nine artists from Australia, including Laurence Aberhart, Bashir Baraki, Adam Broomberg and Oliver Chanarin, Joyce Campbell, Zoe Croggon, Mathew Jones, Leah King-Smith, Nicola Loder, Maha Maamoun, Ricky Maynard, Patrick Pound, Raqs Media Collective, Xochitl Rivera Navarrete, Zineb Sedira (The User), and Kit Wise.
Exhibition dates: 19 July - 22 September, 2012
