Clinton Nain

Born in Melbourne, Clinton Nain considers the history of his homeland in his potent paintings and performance art.

Nain creates vivid abstract canvases, and in his work the artist employs a range of motifs that refer to the dominant culture and are symbolic of its power, ranging from language, religion, land, country, crown to colonisation of the dispossessed.

Since obtaining his Bachelor of Fine Art at the Victorian College of the Arts, and his Master of Fine Art at the University of NSW, he has established a significant place in contemporary Australian art.

His work is held in the collections of The National Gallery of Victoria, the The National Gallery of Australia in Canberra, and the Queensland Art Gallery, the Australian Museum in Sydney and in several University and corporate collections. He has exhibited widely in Australia and Europe.
