Dane Mitchell publication launch at Artspace


Co-published by the Berliner Künstlerprogramm DAAD & Govett-Brewster Art Gallery (New Plymouth), Dunedin Public Art Gallery (Dunedin), Artspace (Auckland) and designed by Tana Mitchell, RADIANT MATTER I/II/III will be launched tonight in Auckland by Dane Mitchell and Artspace.

RADIANT MATTER was a series of exhibition by Dane Mitchell presented at three public galleries across New Zealand, each exhibition operating in autonmous ways and yet sharing similar aesthetic, conceptual and material concerns. The publication brings together these three bodies of work, anchoring them in research begun while Mitchell was a guest of the Berliner Künstlerprogramm in 2009 and further explored in texts by Cay Sophie Rabinowitz, Chris Sharp, Aaron Kreisler, Dane Mitchell and foreward by Ariane Beyn.
