Sean SCULLY

Sean Scully is an artist of international note who produces paintings, prints and watercolours. At Melbourne Art Fair 2006 is a selection of eight individual prints including Vertical Bridge 2003 (ill. left) and two suites: Etchings for Federico Garcia Lorca 2003 and Munich Mirrors 2004.

Scully’s rectangular and squared slabs are suggestive of stone walls and architectural structures. These forms are never perfectly aligned; they abut and overlap with a great weight and integrity but at their edges there is light and transparency suggesting another more random order.

In 2004 there was a major exhibition of Scully’s work at the National Gallery of Australia, Body of Light
