Past Perfect / Present Tense

The Past Perfect / Present Tense exhibition brings together the work of seven international artists who explore the dynamic interplay between representations of culture in the past as portrayed through a contemporary lens. For each artist, the past informs and challenges the present, each creating artwork that draws on and reinterprets the rich material of past genres, masterworks, and concepts to create a dialogue between what has come before and the moment we are in now. Art references include revisited techniques, styles, materials, and ideologies that inform and enrich contemporary narratives.
