The Goddess is a charming and uncommon example of Glenn Morgan’s printmaking, offering a rare opportunity to acquire a work on paper by an artist best known for his distinctive assemblage and mixed media sculptures. Executed as a linocut, the work is presented in Morgan’s own handmade frame of timber, screws and perspex — a playful extension of his fascination with everyday materials and handcrafted construction.
With its wit, character and graphic appeal, The Goddess captures Morgan’s signature ability to find humour and personality in the familiar.
Represented in major public collections including the National Gallery of Australia, the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia and the Museum of Victoria, Glenn Morgan is a much-loved figure in Australian contemporary art.
