About

PAULNACHE presents... Over, Over, Over, Over, Over, Over & Over by New Zealand-born, USA-based artist Matthew Couper, a recently developed performance that uses the repetition of printmaking to complete an edition of new images during Sydney Contemporary 2k15. The Nosferatu character, a symbol of the undead, hand-makes the prints one-by-one, burnishing the paper with an old spoon and assessing whether the works make it into the edition.

Real or illusory? Virtual or physical? Sculptor Glen Hayward teases out these questions in this mind-bending new sculpture 'I don't want you to worry about me, I have met some Beautiful People', a hand-carved and painted recreation of the famous office cubicle from The Matrix. From the ring binders to the telephone to the pencils in a coffee mug, everything here – like everything in the world of the film – is not quite what it seems.  Hayward's installation I don't want you to worry about me, I have met some Beautiful People was created during the artist's residency at the Rita Angus Cottage in 2012. In addition, sculptor Glen Hayward and City Gallery Wellington curator Aaron Lister will have a discussion about Hayward's installation I don't want you to worry about me, I have met some Beautiful People as part of SCAF VIP programme. VIP + PUBLIC PROGRAMME Sydney Contemporary Ticket Holders Start Date / End Date: Thursday 10 & Saturday 12 September 2015 Time: 1:30pm (both days) For more information, visit http://www.paulnache.com/scaf -- RSVP is essential --http://sydneycontemporary.com.au/vip/ It is important to note that The Matrix (1999), was filmed at Fox Studios in Sydney, Australia, and in the city itself, although recognizable landmarks were not included in order to maintain the impression of a generic American city. The filming helped establish New South Wales as a major film production centre (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Matrix).
