Gonkar Gyatso - Three Realms

The first monograph on the work of rising international contemporary artist Gonkar Gyatso, ‘Three Realms’ includes three newly commissioned essays covering the period 2003-2012, and features 38 works exhibited across exhibition venues UQAM, IMA and GUAG, as well as many other significant works from private and public collections around the world including Queensland Art Gallery, White Rabbit Collection (Sydney), Roundabout (Tel Aviv/NZ) and The Burger Collection (Switzerland).

‘Three Realms’ surveys three key interpretive areas around Gyatso’s practice: the personal, the political, and the popular, referring not only to popular culture, but to his standing within the trajectory of Pop art. Essays include an analysis of the artist and work as an exemplar of political agency by leading scholar and writer Professor Maura Reilly (New York / Queensland College of Art), an extended narrative borne of many interviews over time with Gyatso by Savita Apte (Singapore) and a text by curator Simon Wright considering the work within the expanding context of Pop art.
