Artoble Podcast: Col Jordan, To Op with Thanks, Mossenson Galleries, Subiaco

Send us a messageLyn DiCiero speaks with Sydney-based artist Col Jordan, exhibiting To Op with Thanks at Mossenson Galleries in Subiaco until 28 June, 2025. Turning 90 later this year, Col's practice changed direction when he received a catalogue for The Responsive Eye, on show at the Museum of Modern Art in New York in 1965. While audiences called the new Optical Art "bewildering and unsettling," Col found it a revelation. He exhibited in The Field, the radical and controversial exhibition headlining the opening of the National Gallery of Victoria in 1968. Six decades after Op Art transformed his practice irrevocably, he continues to explore its impact.  Listen on the go with Artoble Podcasts!
