I have been shooting the work of Charles Cooper over many years and more recently a new collection which he is about to show at Annandale Galleries. Charles is a seasoned mid-career Australian artist with an impressive exhibition history.
“Geographics 2025” – Charles Cooper at Annandale Galleries
Exhibition Dates: 17 September – 18 October 2025
Venue: Annandale Galleries, 110 Trafalgar Street, Annandale, Sydney Charles Cooper
Cooper returns to Annandale Galleries for his third solo exhibition at the space, following the notable On Location show in 2022 Annandale Galleries – Charles Cooper.
Geographics 2025 is Cooper’s latest body of work explores the tension between urban order and natural entropy. His paintings turn the everyday cracks and repair lines of city roads into compelling studies of texture, colour, and abstraction. As curator Andrew Christie writes, Cooper “plants the seed of perception” — drawing viewers close to appreciate minute detail before inviting them to step back, revealing subtly modulated abstractions that pulse within everyday surfaces.
Born in Sydney in 1952, Cooper has built a distinguished career of solo and group exhibitions both nationally and internationally, while also teaching drawing at the National Art School Annandale GalleriesAnnandale GalleriesMutualArt.
