ANTONIA SELLBACH EXHIBITED IN ‘THE CONCENTRIC INFLUENCES OF SOL LEWITT: FOUNDATIONS, PIVOTS AND PLACE’ AT RMIT GALLERY

Antonia Sellbach is exhibited in ‘The Concentric Influences of Sol LeWitt: Foundations, Pivots and Place’, opening at RMIT Gallery on 5 June 2026. ⁠

Instigated and directed by Dr Irene Barberis (RMIT School of Art), this exhibition emerges from her long-term friendship and mentorship with the esteemed American conceptual artist Sol LeWitt. ⁠

In the 1960s, LeWitt revolutionised the definition of contemporary art by presenting the simple but radical idea that a work of art’s concept is more important than its form. ⁠

RMIT Gallery is delighted to centre this exhibition around a LeWitt wall drawing; the first to be publicly exhibited in Victoria since 1977. ⁠

‘Concentric Influences’ will showcase the work of an established nucleus of international artists who worked closely with LeWitt during his career: Irene Barberis (AUS), John Hogan (USA), Fransje Killaars (NLD), Janet Passehl (USA), Wilma Tabacco (AUS); with a group of invited contemporary Australian artists: Jonas Balsaitis, Emma Coulter, Sarah Duyshart, Robert Hunter, Robin Kingston, Simon Klose, Sara Lindsay, Jordan Mitchell-Fletcher, Kerrie Poliness, Antonia Sellbach, Jacqueline Stojanović, David Thomas and Anne Scott Wilson. ⁠

Curated by Irene Barberis with Helen Rayment. ⁠

The Sol LeWitt wall drawing is generously loaned by the LeWitt family and Estate. ⁠

This exhibition is presented by RMIT University at RMIT Gallery, in collaboration with Metasenta. ⁠
