Anthony White lives and works in Paris, France. His practice encompasses painting, collage and printmaking through which he explores the intersection of societal issues, both current and historical, and how these relate to the production of contemporary image making. His research-based approach to painting is combined with an awareness of surface and a preoccupation with the engagement of physicality and the found object. White’s recent research has been concerned with the phenomenon of Empires – particularly Rome and its influence on the French Republic – as part of a broader investigation into the ways in which empires construct narratives to promote and propagate ideology. 

 

Anthony White has exhibited internationally over the past decade with solo exhibitions in Sydney, Melbourne, Paris and Hong Kong. White has also been regularly curated in group exhibitions focusing on contemporary painting in Sydney, London, Hong Kong, Paris and Brisbane. In 2007 Anthony White was the recipient of the Marten Bequest travelling scholarship. He has received international residency programmes in Paris, Leipzig, Vermont and Latvia in both art centres and museum contexts.

 

He has work in major public and private collections internationally, including the Mark Rothko Art Centre in Latvia, Soho House London and The Tweed Regional Gallery Tweed Heads, Australia.
