Paper Empire: In Conversation, Daniel Mckewen and Sarah Werkmeister

Dates: Saturday 30 June, 2pm

Bus Projects is pleased to host a conversation between Daniel McKewen and Sarah Werkmeister, to coincide with Daniel McKewen’s exhibition ‘Paper Empire’. Daniel and Sarah will discuss his recent work and its relation to aspects of late-capitalism, politics, and anxiety.

When: Saturday 30 June 2pm - 3pm
Where: Bus Projects, 25-31 Rokeby Street, Collingwood

‘Paper Empire’ by Daniel McKewen forms part of Bus Projects’ ongoing ‘With Compliments’ series of exhibitions, exploring the relationship between artists and their influences, across generations and international borders, and how these influences can remain a vital force throughout an artists career. McKewen’s project features works by artists Tracey Moffatt and New York based Paul Pfeiffer.

Daniel McKewen is a Brisbane-based visual artist whose practice investigates the intersections of contemporary art, popular culture, and the entertainment and financial industries. Working across a broad range of media, his work appropriates elements from screen culture in order to examine and critique how institutional structures operate culturally, socially, and politically. His works explore how our subjective and inter-subjective interactions with mass media can allow us to ‘make sense’ of our own social experiences.

In 2013 Daniel was awarded his Doctorate of Philosophy from Queensland University of Technology where he currently lectures in Media Arts. His artwork has been exhibited nationally and internationally since 2006, and is held in private collections. Daniel is represented by Milani Gallery, Brisbane.
