Gordon Hookey: A MURRIALITY
Gordon Hookey: A MURRIALITY
This publication follows the first survey exhibition of Gordon Hookey‘s work A MURRIALITY, co-
curated by José Da Silva, Director, UNSW Galleries, Sydney and Liz Nowell, Director, Institute of Modern Art, Brisbane.
One of Australia’s most iconoclastic artists, Hookey sheds light on historical and contemporary issues affecting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. With biting wit and candour, Hookey’s work addresses issues including land rights, environmental destruction, institutional violence, human rights abuses, systemic racism, police corruption and international conflict. Featuring essays by Jax Compton, José Da Silva, Bruce Johnson McLean, Liz Nowell, and Pablo José Ramírez, alongside interviews between Hookey and Shannon Brett and Jax Compton, this publication is a rich survey of Hookey’s immense artistic output from the early 1990s to the present day.
