Neon Parc is thrilled to announce participation at the 55th edition of Art Cologne, featuring solo presentations by Dale Frank and Nabilah Nordin.

For Art Cologne, Dale Frank has produced a suite of new paintings that extend his material explorations of the interplay between abstraction, colour and high-tech materiality. Using perspex, pigmented varnish and epoxyglass, Frank pushes the limits of his materials, creating swirling, fluorescent forms shimmering with vivid, metallic pigments that simultaneously offer pure surface and void-like depths.

Dale Frank’s solo presentation within the ‘Contemporary’ section of Art Cologne—which highlights established international galleries—showcases some of the best contemporary art worldwide.

Nabilah Nordin has been invited as the first Australian artist to feature in ‘NEW POSITIONS’, a platform which provides young artists with the opportunity to present bold and ambitious new work as part of the curated section of Art Cologne, the longest-running art fair in the world. Selected by an international jury comprised of leading curators and museum directors, 'NEW POSITIONS' has premiered some of the most prominent contemporary artists working today.

For 'NEW POSITIONS', Nordin combines new bronze and mixed media sculptures in concert with idiosyncratic display devices, creating a sprawling tableau of irreverent sensibility, colour and form.
