Connie Samaras @ Gus Fisher Gallery, Auckland, NZ


Antarctica: Joyce Cambell, Anne Noble, Connie Samaras

8 May - 20 June, 2009

Antarctica
brings together work by Joyce Campbell, Anne Noble, and Connie Samaras on the subject of Antarctica, the most extreme continent on the planet. Artist residencies enabled each of them to photograph and experience firsthand the severe and almost inhuman conditions. Each artist's work approaches the subject with differing yet overlapping frameworks, creating a transcultural dialogue that seeks to de-exoticise a landscape that has been romanticised, idealised, and made epic.
