Roslyn Oxley9 Gallery is exhibiting Isaac Julien’s “Refuge,” a juxtaposition of poetic film and photographic installations that will be on view through November 19, 2016.Isaac Julien is one of Britain’s most influential and critically acclaimed artists working today, who pioneered multi-screen installations. Special attention in his works is always paid to visual and sonic qualities, enabling his cinematic and photographic works to combine a theoretical sophistication with visual luxury and sensuality. The exhibition features the Australian debut of his new multi-screen installation ‘Stones Against Diamonds (2015)’ juxtaposed with one of the artist’s most prophetic works ‘WESTERN UNION: Small Boats (2007),’ shot in Sicily. Julien adopts themes of change and crises, trans-cultural exchange, and the implacably growing influence of powerful interests while ignoring nature’s changing economy, into powerful poetic and visual meditations.The installation is on view at Roslyn Oxley Gallery, 8 Soudan Lane (off Hampden Street), Paddington NSW 2021, Sydney, Australia.
