Held in the Gallery’s 40th anniversary year, Crooks’ project celebrates the design of the original National Gallery building by Edwards, Madigan, Torzillo and Partners. Using the architects' geometric language as a point of departure, Crooks transforms the Gallery façade through visual manipulations spanning geometry, perspective, colour and light. A score by Byron Scullin responds to the building's brutalist architecture and sense of sacred geometry.
