Exhibition - Riffing On: Pat Larter鈥檚 Rhythms and Pete Maloney鈥檚 Blues
Performative practice was essential to Pat Larter鈥檚 oeuvre, providing the context and subject matter to her painting. Riffing On brings together a selection of works borne out of the 1993 exhibition Pat Larter鈥檚 Rhythms & Pete Maloney鈥檚 Blues in which Maloney鈥檚 paintings perform as backdrops, stages and sets for Larter鈥檚 models and subjects. Explicit, energised and charged, their paintings and photo-collages are supported by archival material documenting performance and place.
Life-long partners Richard and Pat Larter spent a large portion of their lives living in Yass, NSW and after Pat鈥檚 death in 1996, Richard moved to Canberra and became well-embedded within its cultural scene. Their influence was wide reaching and formative for several generations of Canberra artists.
