STEVEN RENDALL AND ALBERT TUCKER

DATA FOR FUTURE PAINTINGS

Heide Museum of Modern Art
Saturday 16 SeptemberSunday 21 April

In this project, contemporary Melbourne artist Steven Rendall has drawn on selected studies and photographs by Albert Tucker as the starting point for a new series of artworks, which are presented in this exhibition alongside the original source material.

Over the course of his career, Tucker compulsively recorded and amassed pictures as ‘data for future paintings’. Combining Tucker’s ideas and iconographies with his own distinctive codes, Rendall remixes Tucker’s visual observations, use of shapes and mark making via a range of strategies. He skews compositions through grids and fragmentary planes, as well as offering more direct translations of Tucker’s work, to consider the legacies of those who precede us and the practice of art making itself.
