THOUGHT TRAFFIC

THOUGHT TRAFFIC - THE GALLERY PREMISES
Curated by Brenden Gray & Leigh-Anne Niehaus
30 june - 28 july 2007

“Thought Traffic” is an informal exhibition that consists of contemporary artists who produce drawings within the context of the everyday. The body of work illustrates the ways in which drawing permeates artists’ experience of daily life: image-making invades agenda’s, minutes, colonises the margins of official documents, takes possession of envelopes, serviettes, and plagues diaries and personal organisers.


PORTRAITS OF THE ABSURD MAN
The Absurd man is powerless to calm his anguish. He does not attempt to escape his condition. The Absurd man is fed with indifference to live without hope or appeal. He is innocent because sin has no meaning. He accepts despair as an ultimate freedom.
