One of the works our visitors hate the most is Cloaca Professional (2009) the creation of Wim Delvoye. However, the ‘O’ interpretation device also reveals that visitors spend more time with this work than any other piece. Therefore, it seemed apropos to offer a retrospective revealing more of this Belgian artist’s useless, productive art – from his pretzel series and tyres to gas cans, marble floors, a chapel and, yes, more cloacae. Delvoye is well known in Europe for his exploration of what it means to be human. Using X-ray images of humans and beasts and the scatalogical works audiences love to hate he argues that art today is best used to explore, not whether we come from monkeys but how we differ from a grain of rice or even a mouse. This is Delvoye’s first solo exhibition in Australia. MUSEUM OPEN DAILY 10AM - 6PM.
