Over thirty years have passed since Bill Henson made his iconic Untitled 1985/86 series. These mesmerizing photographs cast a hazy procession of people and places in the suburbs, interspersed with dreamlike vignettes of Egyptian structures, and marked Henson's distinct style.
Now, Henson revisits his home suburb to create new work. While these photographs return to Glen Waverley, they show an environment that appears to have slipped out of linear time. Henson's new images are sumptuous and resplendent in their grandeur, offering a view of what is just down the street, but seem to come from another age. Together, the two series provide a glimpse into Henson's brilliant mind as he ponders the passing of time.
The Light Fades but the Gods Remain, accompanied by an exhibition of both series of work at Monash Gallery of Art, celebrates an extraordinary artist at two stages in his career. Casting suburbia in an entirely new light, this publication is a captivating meditation on growing up.
