Explore a visual cacophony of place and events as Gordon Hookey transports his poster collection to Museum of Brisbane.
'The poster collection - over 40 years - started in 1983 when I was a student at The University of Queensland. Unbeknownst to me, I collected a lot. It is only recently that I noticed the expanse of my collection. And all it is, is a representation that there is witness to my life.' - Gordon Hookey
Spanning four decades of collecting, Gordon has recreated an installation of posters from his Yeronga studio in the Museum. With subject matter ranging from protest and social justice to global and local iconography, this collection of posters has acted as a source of inspiration for some of Gordon's most recognised works.
MoB invites you to take front seat as Gordon transports his collection to the Adelaide Street Pavillion when he joins the Museum as Artist in Residence from November 2022.
Come take a walk through 40 years of inspiration and perhaps have a yarn with Gordon while he is working in the Museum, Tuesdays and Thursdays.
MoB's Artist in Residence program is supported by Tim Fairfax AC.
