Friday 20 November to Saturday 12 December 2015

The Merri-bek Summer Show is open to contemporary artists or collectives who live, work, study or base their creative practice in the City of Merri-bek.

This year applicants were asked to consider in their contemporary practice a response to the theme 'Science Friction'.

We live in a time of astonishing scientific and technological development, previously considered the stuff of fantasy. Similarly the world of contemporary art has generally embraced the possibilities that new materials and imaging technologies offer. In both cases the transition is not always smooth, or welcomed by all. While excitement and curiosity follow invention and newness it can also leave us feeling confused, ambivalent or obsolete. The postscript is always - What next?

Public program
