Michael Georgetti
Deferring Gesture

28 March – 19 April, opens Thursday 27 March, 6 – 8pm

Artist Talk Thursday 17 April, 12.30 – 1.30pm

In Deferring Gesture the animated and human qualities have developed by creating a union of painting, film and objects, amplifying the mediating role of the brush that lies between the artist and the canvas. Georgetti has used parallel processes to emphasise the disconnection between the maker and the artwork in painting. The process in this work is used in a provisional way to address the inflexible nature of the stretched canvas.
