Tracey Moffatt My Horizon
Tracey Moffatt is arguably Australia's most successful artist. She has exhibited in galleries and museums around the world and is the recipient of the International Center of Photography's 2007 Infinity Award for Art. My Horizon is the first book on this esteemed artist in ten years. With all new work, including large-scale photography and film, this publication situates Moffatt's work in the international arena as an artist who consistently takes the tempo of our times. Moffatt has created highly stylised narratives and montage to explore a range of themes, including the complexities of interpersonal relationships, the curiousness of popular culture, and her own deeply felt childhood memories and fantasies.My Horizon will present a compendium of texts that reflect on the artist's highly political and personal fictions, allowing readers to ponder what might be over the horizon. Contributing authors include Germano Celant, Adrian Martin, Moira Roth, Susan Bright, Djon Mundine, Alexis Wright, and Romaine Moreton.
Tracey Moffatt
"Making art is quite therapeutic", Tracey Moffatt once said of herself. This brief statement reveals much of the artist's personality and above all about her manner of interpreting the artistic experience, a practice that frequently refers to her personal episodes and events. An Aborigine by birth, Tracey Moffatt grew up as a foster child in a white family in line with the policy of the time, and she quickly became fascinated by the pop culture of those years. Images drawn from magazines, cinema and television began to form the symbolic universe that would become a point of reference in most of her work, alongside the ever-present and in part autobiographical theme of ostracism and segregation experienced in all its aspects: racial, social, sexual.

Trauma Culture
E. Ann Kaplan explores the relationship between the impact of trauma on individuals and on entire cultures and nations. Arguing that humans possess a need to draw meaning from personal experience and to communicate what happens to others, she examines the forms that are used to bridge the experience.

The Queensland Art Gallery and Gallery of Modern Art (QAGOMA) will present Tracey Moffat: Spirited at the GOMA from 25 October 2014 to 8 February 2015. This exhibition, and the accompanying publication, will feature new and incredibly ambitious work by this internationally acclaimed artist, including an installation designed as the first in a series of 'talk show'-style videos, featuring interviews between Moffatt and a range of high-profile Australian and International artists. Via Skype, Moffatt will engage with the artists in their homes, studios, or hotel rooms from her apartment in Sydney. Proposed artists to be 'interviewed' include; Christo, Mark Bradford, Ghada Amer, El Anatsui, June Newton (Australian wife of photographer Helmet Newton), Phillippe Starck, George (Hairbrush) Tjungurrayi, Bridget Riley, Franco Mondini-Ruiz, Martin Scorsese. 'Spirited' will also feature a recent body of work entitled Spirit Landscape, five photographic series.
