Well Situated Home (1991)



Synthetic polymer paint on canvas, 167.4 x 151
Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney, gift of Loti Smorgon AO and Victor Smorgon AC, 1995 [1995.120]

In its stark setting and emphasis on the foreground driveway, this picture could be thought of as a companion for the Queensland Art Gallery’s Stucco Home (1991), although this work is slightly taller.

There is a notable focus here on the individual sections of the concrete driveway, each with distinctive brushwork in shades of grey, blue and purple.

Provenance

  • Acquired for the MCA in 1995 (with the Smorgon Collection)
