In a rare glimpse of the evolutionary process of an artist's journey, multiple bodies of work will be shown, bringing together the artist's inquiry into the search for meaning in everyday life. From large scale gestural abstraction to tiny figurative and interior meditations, reaching across styles and genres from modernist art to mashups of contemporary culture will be presented side by side. "Hackett's canvases are a veritable painters toolbox, as much drawing as painting, a regeneration of the history, languages and possibilities of painting." Max Presneill, 2008.More information can be found here.
