Growing up in rural Australia, artist David Noonan sought cultural references in film, many of which went on to inspire his work in later life, including this linen collage in our collection. He is known for combining figurative images with more abstract elements, such as Japanese Boro textiles. He also likes to time-travel, coalescing images from different time periods to create what he calls 'temporal slips.'
In this podcast series, the Chicago Booth School of Business explores the themes portrayed in the art on view at its London campus. Taking a pioneering approach, the school uses art as a tool to inspire curiosity in its MBA students and to stimulate discussion around global issues.
Join presenter Emma Clark as she interviews curators and artists to unpack the complexities in their work and explore how art deals with globalisation, racial identity, gender, the role of media and so much more.
