This exhibition is part of The National Gallery of Victoria’s Melbourne Art Book Fair 2024 program.
Sphere is an image archive project concerning itself with Abstraction.
As an archive, Sphere exists in two forms: as an online index of documented submissions, and as a printed and collated artist book. Sphere aims to bring an international community of artists and their work together into a shared space of experimentation and reflection. It engages with the notion of the archive as a collection of images based upon the present, recorded in printed form and combined into a historical index.
In 2024 co-editors Justin Andrews and Jacqueline Stojanović produced issues 5-8 of the Sphere archive. Their continuation of the Sphere project considers the notion of the archive in the hands of artists, and explores the way in which Sphere is an evolving project, mapping an artistic community with an aim include, expand, collect and re-present in perpetuity.
Sphere was made possible by the Australian Government Regional Arts Fund, which supports the arts in regional and remote Australia.
