A Centre for Contemporary Photography and NETS Victoria touring exhibition.
True Self: David Rosetzky Selected Works
True Self: David Rosetzky Selected Works will be toured by NETS Victoria to venues across Australia from 2013 to 2015 with the support of Visions of Australia.
One of Australia’s foremost exponents of video art, David Rosetzky creates intensely beautiful videos, photo-collages and installations exploring identity, subjectivity and interpersonal relationships. Drawing on fifteen years of practice, this is the first comprehensive survey of his work to date. Lured by high production values and beautiful subjects, the viewer becomes ensnared in Rosetzky’s stiflingly stylish worlds. The artist heightens the alienation of his subjects through devices such as repetition of dialogue and action, seemingly random replacement of characters and passages of choreography. True Self: David Rosetzky Selected Works will particularly emphasise this play of the individual and the group in his work as it develops across time, with particular focus on his video practice.
