MCK are pleased to be advised that our model entry in the  ’Abundant Australia’ exhibition will be on display again in Melbourne’s Federation Square, following a successful period on display at the Object Gallery in Sydney.

From the State of Design website:

Following Australia’s success last year at the 11th International Architecture Exhibition in Venice, models from the Abundant Australia Exhibition will be on show at BMW Edge, following a popular exhibition at Sydney’s Object Gallery.

The Abundant exhibition showcased over 300 interpretive models from abstract forms to architectural fragments, responding to the theme ‘Out there: architecture beyond the building’. It is a reinstallation reminiscent of the original ‘garden of architectural artefacts’, curated by Creative Directors Neil Durbach, Vince Frost, Wendy Lewin, Kerstin Thompson & Gary Warner. The Melbourne exhibition will see over 100 of these models, from emerging and established practices around Australia.

Each model comes with individual descriptions that reveal the key characteristics of each project. Abundant Highlights in Melbourne includes a range of emerging and established practices to demonstrate the divergent approaches to generating building here and now.

This exhibition uses models to demonstrate the breadth and depth of Australia’s architectural practice, highlighting Australia’s diverse architectural history and inspirational future. All architects involved in the exhibition created interpretive models based on Venice Biennale Director Aaron Betsky’s theme: ‘Out there: architecture beyond building’.

Opening Friday, 17 July, invitation only.
