Lexicon
curated by Martina Copley
City Library Gallery, Melbourne
With 57 artists
"Lexicon will present a collection of contemporary works over fifty local Melbourne artists incorporating…pages from an old dictionary (Chambers English, 1898)…artists are invited to play with the solidity and transparency of encoded language, responding to the limitations of format and/or to inscribed meanings suggested by a reading of the words on the page"
( Martina Copley's invitation and instructions to artists)
