"Free Fall" Catalogue

Widely known for his thick, gestural oil paintings Ben Quilty has explored a range of themes throughout⁠ his career.  At its core, Quilty’s practice is inextricably linked to his own apprehension – as a male, as an Australian, and as a world citizen. A truly self-reflexive practice. Quilty packs a punch with brazen, gutsy pieces that impart a sense of social responsibility while presenting judgement and constant evaluation; ultimately of our existence and treatment of each other.⁠
