Less Is More

The Heide opens a new exhibition that’s decidedly stripped back, Less is More: Minimal & Post-Minimal Art in Australia. Focusing on the Australian artistic pillars of this movement, it conveys how in 1960s Melbourne and Sydney a young generation of artists were eager to address what they saw as the latest and most progressive developments in art, and explored Minimalism through abstract painting and sculpture. Developed and characterised by simplistic geometric and modular forms, the movement’s fundamental principle is ‘less is more’ – suggesting that an artwork need not be visually complicated in order to be meaningful.

Less is More: Minimal & Post-Minimal Art in Australia opens at Heide on Friday August 3. We're giving away some double passes just tell us of a situation where you find less is more. For me it's fake tan... less... much, much less ladies.
