Julia Gorman & Melinda Harper

LON Gallery is thrilled to present a two person exhibition of historic and new works by Julia Gorman and Melinda Harper on view between March 1 - 25.

This exhibition pairs two of Australia’s leading contemporary artists working within the field of abstraction. This dynamic presentation juxtaposes Gorman’s iconic, ground breaking cardboard and balloon sculptures from the early 00’s with a suite of Harper’s recent non object objective works which first achieved widespread acclaim during her involvement as a leading member of the influential artist’s run space, Store 5 in Melbourne in the late 80s and early 90s.
