About
'The Painter's Reach' explores the work of senior Australian artist MacPherson and includes paintings, installations, ephemera and works on paper, showing how the artist's reach begins with the particular and extends far beyond.
A constant presence on the Australian art scene for almost forty years, MacPherson's autodidacticism and varied working life is reflected in his work which has been shown in a wide range of contexts - minimalism, abstraction, the archival impulse, humour, aesthetics, conceptualism, and the everyday.
