Michael Schreier, "Untitled" (1980), "Street Portraits: Anonymous Encounters" series, In-camera cibachrome, azo dye work on paper, gift of George Carmody, 2000
This exhibition explores the many ways in which artists approach and represent ideas of kinship, community and belonging.
Family Matters brings together a compelling range of prints, drawings, photographs and paintings, dating from the mid-1800s to today, selected from CUAG’s collection.
These works variously depict tender moments, document public and private spaces, index the everyday and explore familial roles and relationships.
