Sam Jinks: Body in Time - Following on from the huge success of Sam Jinks' Woman and child in 2010, Sam Jinks: Body in Time is the first retrospective exhibition of one of Australia's most talented young artists. This survey will fill the entire ground floor of SAM and showcase a selection of artworks that fit within an aesthetic of ‘real sculpture': silicone-based objects that immaculately replicate human form and features. As well as iconic works such as Still Life (Pieta) 2007 and Woman and child 2010, Body in Time will bring together older sculptures that trace the development of Jinks' artistic practice over the past five years, along with a number of new sculptures to be exhibited for the first time.

Tom Nicholson & Raafat Ishak - Proposition for a Banner March and a Black Cube Hot Air Balloon -
Tom Nicholson & Raafat Ishak - Proposition for a Banner March and a Black Cube Hot Air Balloon
Melbourne based artists Raafat Ishak
and Tom Nicholson first began exploring
shared aspects of their practices in 2003.
Proposition For a Banner March and
a Black Cube Hot Air Balloon is the resulting
exhibition project that has evolved out
of these exchanges, and will present objects
and ideas relating to a propositional future
public event: a simultaneous banner march
and hot air balloon flight through Shepparton.
Ishak and Nicholson have previously
explored this concept in propositional
forms, through a number of public actions,
exhibitions and sculptural forms.
Proposition For a Banner March and
a Black Cube Hot Air Balloon will expand
this aspect of their practices to incorporate
the unique and rich history of Shepparton.
The exhibition will feature multiple
elements including the display of project
archive material, a series of talks and dinners
in the Art Museum, and the development
of a new, site-specific installation.

Drawing Wall #8 - Justin Andrews
26 July to 21 October
Justin Andrews is a Melbourne based artist who explores the language of geometric abstraction through drawing, painting and sculptural assemblages.
For Andrews’ Drawing Wall project, a series of large scale black and white prints featuring geometric compositions will be presented. These compositions are enlargements from randomly generated constructions created on a scanner. Adding another dimension to the work, geometric forms will then be hand drawn across the drawing wall on top of the prints.
