UK artist Christopher Bucklow exhibits Guest at Artereal
2 - 25 November 2006

Guest are dreams that have transpired into a collection of works that embody the spirit of each subject. Using a pin hole camera, thousands of tiny circles of light are cast upon a silhouette creating the illusion of a three dimensional figure, captured by the sunlight at that moment in time.

“Guest is not the physical series of photographs, but a process that has roots in time - back across the generations.”

The Guest collection is a cross between photography and drawing. The works are luminescent and bear a mesmerising effect.

Christopher Bucklow is a prominent English artist who works in various mediums and has been exhibiting internationally since 1996, with dozens of solo and group exhibitions to his credit at such prestigious venues as the Photographers’ Gallery in London, the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, amongst others.

Bucklow’s work is held in numerous important public collections including the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, and the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston.

Bucklow has two books published on his work, one a collection of photographs and the other a collection of drawings.

Guest opens on 2 Nov at 6pm. Please join us for drinks with the artist.

Chris will be in Australia for a limited time and is available for interview. Please contact Rebecca Denning for more information, images, or to arrange a time to meet the artist. Email rebecca@artereal.com.au or phone (02) 9818 7473.
