Shepparton Art Museum presents American artist Ryan McGinley’s first major solo exhibition in Australia.
YEARBOOK is a large-scale, ever-evolving artwork consisting of over five hundred studio portraits of musicians, artists, and creatives living and working in New York. First presented in 2008, YEARBOOK is a celebration of the diversity of the human body, depicting nude figures of every body-type.
Each individual image is a unique portrait, granting the viewer access to a delicate, once-private moment between the photographer and sitter. The candy-coloured prints, recalling fashion or rock band promotional posters, envelop the visitor, flooding the entire space with bold colour and form.
Presented in partnership with PHOTO Australia
