Again and Again and Again:
Serial Formats and Repetitive Actions

Drawn from the Gallery’s permanent collection, this exhibition features artists who utilize repetitive actions or serial images to open up perception both figuratively and literally. From the mechanistic repetition inherent in much domestic work and industrial labour, to the multiple versions afforded by technological developments, to the limits of endurance that have been tested by performance artists, this exhibition offers a number of perspectives on what it means to do something again and again and again. These works demonstrate that repeating an action over and over can foster dialogue by creating a multiplicity of narratives and interpretations, as well as producing comical or absurd scenarios. Again and Again and Again will include works by local and international artists, including Eija-Liisa Ahtila, Derek Brunen, Andrew Dadson, Song Dong, Jeremy Hof, Joyce Wieland and others.
