Art of The Game, The

Art of the Game reveals two of Australia’s most innovative photographers – Trent Parke and Narelle Autio – as they bring together the worlds of art and sport in their first ever moving image work Summation of Force. What is it about the sport of cricket that has inspired the work of artistic giants such as Beckett, Francis Bacon and Eadward Muybridge? Art of the Game explores the parallel narratives of Trent and Narelle’s careers and the making of the new work, with an essay that looks at how the idiosyncratic sport of cricket is a metaphor for life and art.
