Opening tonight, September 3, Simone Douglas, Director of Parsons’ MFA Fine Arts program, and Christopher Bucklow, leading British artist, will come together to meet in Australia, where they will explore their shared preoccupation with the ultimate natural light source, the sun, in a new exhibition at Sydney Gallery, Artereal.
Entitled Sun to Sun, the exhibition takes the form of a visual dialogue, with the enigmatic work of Simone Douglas responding to Christopher Bucklow’s acclaimed pin-hole photographic works. Marking their very first collaborative exhibition, Sun to Sun is the culmination of decades of dialogue between the artists, not only as peers but also close friends and admirers of each other’s work.
