Modern Baseball is a series of paintings that references Ellsworth Kelly's 'Red, Yellow, Blue III' (1966) and the artist's father Raymond Pauszek II's commercial sign paintings for the Dunkirk, New York, Little League Baseball Field. The new work by Tim Pauszek zooms in to his father's since destroyed signs to become closer to Kelly's colour field work (or do they zoom out of Kelly's work to become closer to Ray II's signs? I can never remember).

Soft Monument is an exhibition by Cambodian-Australian artist Linda Sok which looks to subvert the ways historically felt traumas have been addressed throughout history. The work speaks to the Khmer Rouge Regime without depictions of violence and promotes a softer way of communicating the occurrence of the violent acts perpetrated during this time and its ongoing effects.
