Elixir of Light – Virtual Tour
Enjoy this Virtual Exhibition Tour from the William Robinson Gallery, Old Government House, Brisbane.
William Robinson has a profound understanding of observed natural light. In his work, small brush strokes of complementary colours bustle in directions to create form, we see morning and afternoon light fall naturally over mountains and everyday objects. Painting in an apologetically ‘South East Queensland’ light, Robinson uses colour to infuse his paintings with atmospheric qualities that evoke reverence and meditation.
Guest curated by Robinson’s past student, Maureen Hansen, a practicing artist herself, Elixir of Light brings together oil paintings, pastels, lithographs, watercolours and gouache works that celebrate the artist’s extraordinary gift of colour perception.
