"Doug Biden : Visceral Allegories: A Retrospective of the work of Doug Biden consists of 77 mixed media works by the late artist. The works in this show reflect a time of great discovery for the artists where he experimented with different media and processes while synthesizing many ideas in his visual art practice. These Modernist based works embody the broader ideas that drove Biden to create art; ideas that centre on the influence of the media and people’s reactions to it, as well as on political activism, social commentary, and the human body.
