Dale Frank

Come on cuz, better luck next time

Neon Parc
Friday 10 OctoberSaturday 8 November

Neon Parc is pleased to announce a major solo exhibition of new paintings by Dale Frank, opening at Neon Parc Brunswick on Friday 10 October, 6–8pm.

Dale Frank is recognised as one of Australia’s most significant contemporary artists, with a career spanning five decades and a practice defined by constant reinvention. His work explores the possibilities of painting and the complex relationship between image and viewer, drawing on both abstraction and representation to reshape how we experience visual art.

This exhibition, Frank’s fourteenth with Neon Parc, presents a suite of new paintings created with translucent dyes and resin. Vivid hues — sapphire, scarlet and neon pink — expand and collapse across the surface in luminous, unpredictable formations. At once intricate and expansive, the works possess a striking physicality that immerses the viewer.

The title, ‘come on cuz, better luck next time’, captures the restless energy of Frank’s process. Working with volatile materials that resist control, the artist embraces risk and chance as essential to discovery. Each painting emerges as both accident and resolution, reflecting a practice that finds momentum in persistence and transformation.

“Dale Frank is part of a remarkable lineage of Australian artists who continually push their practice to remain dynamic and vital. His work has evolved constantly over more than forty years, yet it remains deeply consistent in its energy and its drive to challenge what art can be in the 21st century.”
