About
The work in this exhibition reflects over almost all of Spencer's artistic career. We begin with her white systematic reliefs and come to a very vibrant end with her systematic colour paintings. Spencer's rigorous mathematical constructions on paper show not only strong guided boundaries but also are extremely sensitive and intimate in their nature.
A fully illustrated catalogue is available to accompany the exhibition, which also includes an abstract by Redfern artist John Carter and an introductory essay by art critic Alan Fowler.
