Incredible Art Exhibition

The first major exhibition in europe since 2005 of ron mueck opened today at the fondation cartier pour l’art contemporain, paris, unveiling new work by the highly acclaimed london-based artist. to complement six important recent sculptures, the show also includes three pieces produced especially for the event – two teenagers in the street, a mother and baby and an elderly couple on the beach.
Ron Mueck deals in the currency of the human form and condition – warts, flab, stubble and all. The Melbourne-born, internationally celebrated artist’s gigantically scaled, intensely realistic sculptures not only amplify the physicality of the human body, but the individuality of personal experience.
Impish childhood portrayals offset plaintive, psychologically and emotionally loaded explorations of later life; evidence of interaction is swallowed by an omnipresent isolation.

In what NGV have billed as the “largest and most comprehensive” survey of Mueck’s work to be held in Australia, the exhibition will comprise 12 sculptures, including four works created especially for the show.
