Retrogression Programme - Oliver Sutherland - Untitled

Event Details

Broadly speaking Oliver Sutherland’s artwork focuses on visual presentation tools, working with over used or aging presentation devices, which prod at our indifference to computer generated and transformed images. Sutherland will present a short film based loosely on his previous work ‘Nothing For Chroma Key’. Retrogression, is an expanded curatorial project spread over three months. Three artists who have previously presented work with Trade have been commissioned to produce new artwork through revisiting an existing piece of their own work. The project includes work by Phillip Henderson, Alexander Stevenson and Oliver Sutherland. Over three months, the exhibition will feature these previous pieces alongside the new commissions and the work of the artists’ that have gone before them. The lecture, story teller, physical performance and presentation devices come under the spotlight in the artworks selected, each involving differing levels of reuse, repetition and retelling, that reconfigure meaning and images through documentation, abstraction, and translation.  Retrogression is curated by Bruce Asbestos / Trade and commissioned by Broadway Media Arts
