Highlights of the collection.
And lowlights. Evolving.
WIM DELVOYE

OPENING DEC 10, 2011
-APRIL 9, 2012
Wim Delvoye is a Belgian conceptual artist. There is heated debate among us at Mona about the ethical integrity of his work, and pronunciation of his name. We love him, though, and we are really excited to have so many works of his - more than one hundred, in fact - here in Tassie, many for the first time out of Europe (it's just north of the mainland). Don't miss it.
TATTOOED TIM TOURS

OPENING DEC 10, 2011
-APR 9, 2012
11AM & 3PM WEEKENDS
3PM WEEKDAYS
And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us (and we
beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father)
full of grace and truth. -John 1.14
Wim Delvoye has turned a man into a work of art. Maybe. Come with
him - the art work, Tim - on a tour of his progenitor's
exhibition.
Museum entry fees apply.
Not available on 31 Jan, 1 Feb and 2 Feb. Apparently Tim needs a rest.
DANIEL MUDIE CUNNINGHAM

FUNERAL SONGS
OPENING JAN 13, 2012
-FEB 13, 2012
What song do you want played at your funeral? Daniel has been asking people for a number of years. He has compiled a musical anthology of anticipatory grieving for the loss of yourself from the world, or celebration for having been here in the first place.
NELL

LET THERE BE ROBE
OPENING JAN 13, 2012
-FEB 13, 2012
'Let there be sound,' and there was sound
'Let there be lights,' and there was lights
'Let there be drums', there was drums
'Let there be guitar', there was guitar, ah
'Let there be rock'
And it came to pass
That rock 'n' roll was born.
AC/DC were clearly correlating the birth of rock with that of JC.
Nell spins things a little bit Buddha. Come and see.
SUSAN PHILIPSZ

OPENING JAN 13, 2012
-FEB 13, 2012
Susan Philipsz won the Turner Prize in 2010 for her work
Lowlands, which involved recording herself singing a
melancholic song, and impregnating a public space with the
recording. The sound of her singing has a strange effect. It makes
you somehow feel more keenly the weight of the place you are
in.
In the MONA galleries you will hear Susan's new work The Two
Sisters, which is comprised of her singing a
seventeenth-century Scottish song, seemingly to herself, about
sororicide - the murder of one's sister.
