JamFactory Icon Gerry Wedd: Kitschen Man

14 October to 18 November 2018

Willow pattern ceramics submerged in political jibes, classic urns decorated with lyrical portraits, garniture figurines poised in confrontational narratives, Gerry Wedd’s work is a day at the beach – with a smash of homebaked reality pie in your face for good measure.

Traditional ceramic styles imbued with meaty metaphor burst the seams of this solo exhibition by Gerry Wedd, showcasing the breadth of this iconic artist’s career. This JamFactory Icon exhibition is one of an annual event celebrating masters of creative excellence.

JamFactory Icon Gerry Wedd: Kitschen Man is a JamFactory touring exhibition supported by Visions of Australia, an Australian Government program supporting touring exhibitions by providing funding assistance for the development and touring of Australian cultural material across Australia and the Australia Council for the Arts, the Australian Governments arts funding and advisory body.
