Cracker work by Sean Hogan in the Abstraction 2026 exhibition @five_walls @sphogan #abstraction #abstractart #painting #contemporaryart #blur

Abstraction 2026 continues this week and includes these stunning works by Melbourne based artists Sean Hogan, you may recall his sell out booth at the @melbourneartfair in February this year. Sean Hogan is a multidisciplinary artist whose work spans painting, print, and sculpture. His practice employs system-based processes and structured sets of rules to explore formal aesthetics such as geometry, color theory, proportion, and materiality. These elements reflect an algorithmic approach that bridges the gap between human interaction and both physical and digital environments. His recent accomplishments include being featured in the National Gallery of Victoria’s (NGV) Melbourne Nowsurvey of contemporary art (2022–2023) with his large-scale work Volume I (2022). He has also exhibited at LaTrobe Art Institute (2018) and participated in art fairs such as Spring 1883 and Sydney Contemporary(2021). His work has been acquired by significant institutions, including the NGV and Artbank, for their permanent collections. Additionally, Hogan was commissioned by video game developer Tantalus to create a public artwork currently displayed in inner Melbourne. In addition to his visual art practice, Hogan has garnered several prestigious awards, including the 2021 Australian Book Design Award and the Royal Australian Institute of Architects Award in both 2020 and 2021. He has also received the Australian Graphic Design Association Award in 2020 and 2021. His collaborative projects have included work with Wired Magazine, Apple Music, and The New York Times. He has also contributed to industry discourse through lectures at institutions such as the NGV, Victorian College of the Arts, Typographics 2021, Swinburne University, RMIT University, and the Royal Australian Institute of Architects.

Join us on June 5th from 5-9pm for Cine Redux, a journey through Footscray’s cinematic past and its creative present. Hosted by Five Walls Gallery and Arcade Projects, CineRedux: Footscray Reimagined blends history, film, and contemporary art to revisit the suburb’s once-vibrant cinema culture through archival materials, local stories, and new artistic responses. Held across two weekends — June 5, 2026, and July 26, 2026 — and centred around the historic Trocadero Arcade, CineRedux will present an immersive evening of art, projections, and live performances spanning the arcade, Five Walls Gallery (located above the arcade and accessed via the rear stairwell), and the building’s exterior. Highlights include a series of lightboxes by local artist Sean Hogan, with performances by Footscray musicians Artificial Limb (Marc Eiden) and Ivofonic (Ivano Abram). Cine Redux is supported by the City of Maribyrnong under the Love your West Grant.

Please join us this Friday from 6-9pm for the opening of the much anticipated Abstraction 2026.

A great honor to be asked by the Design Institute of Australia @design_institute_au to design the new wordmark for the Graduate of the Year Awards 2026. I riffed off the existing DIA logo form to create the letterforms. I also gave an interview with DIA CEO @simoneleamon which is linked in my bio and on their website now. #seanhogan #sphogan #graphicdesign #typography

I will be giving an artist talk this Sunday with Ed and Paul Carter on the Choreotypography exhibition that is currently on at Fox Galleries. Please come and say hi. Talk starts at 2pm Sunday 26th Fox Galleries 67 Wellington St Collingwood @fox_galleries #seanhogan #sphogan #typography

‘Choreotypography’ continues through to the 4th May. Fox Galleries 67 Wellington St Collingwood 10 - 6 Monday - Friday Pictured: Tongues Sean Hogan and Paul Carter 2026 Archival pigment print on Museo rag paper 1189 x 841mm #seanhogan #sphogan #typography @fox_galleries @johnwarwicker0001

Choreotypography Opening: Thursday 9th April 6pm Exhibition dates: 9th April - 4th May 2026 Fox Galleries 67 Wellington St Collingwood Graphic artists/designers John Warwicker (Tomato), Sean Hogan (Trampoline) and Edmund Carter riff off drawings and writings by Paul Carter. The title of the show refers to the iterative nature of the collaboration, the improvised volumetric dance and rearrangement of the calligraphic trace. The graphic provides a common language mediating between poetic inscription, eidetic memory and the physical arrangement of text. The power of type shape and text layout to script choreographies of physical space is explored in the Warwicker/Hogan improvisations on Paul Carter’s public space graphemes and glyphs. Laying Paul Carter’s drawings over one another, Edmund Carter discovers a three dimensional hybrid, a pareidolic forest where new sightings are drawn out. If you around please come and visit and say hi. Pictured: Sticky 03 Sean hogan, John Warwicker, Paul Carter 2026 #seanhogan #sphogan @johnwarwicker0001 #typography #paulcarter
