Fred Williams: infinite horizons 5.0/5
Ian Potter Gallery, Melbourne
6th May 2012

Well thought-out retrospective that intelligently traces William’s development as an artist from apprentice to master of minimalist Australian landscape.  Though as the informative captioning explains William’s skill was in combining just the right amount of several modern styles into his own.  Each work is laced with a subtle appreciation of the bushes’ colours, shades and harshness whilst leaving enough space to bring your own sense of place.  Impressive and contemplative.
