In framing this research various factors which have impacted on the re-emergence of collaborative artistic practices – the role of the artist, the perception of art making, and societal and cultural influences were also considered. Three case studies were utilised for this research: the Parliament House Embroidery (1984 – 1988); the Victorian Tapestry Workshop (1976 - ); and the Partnership or Perish? exhibition (2006). The extensive documentation and archival resources available affected the choice of the first two case studies, with the third being chosen due to my curatorial role in the Partnership or Perish? exhibition. All of the case studies have been publicly acknowledged as being the result of a collaborative process. Each of the case studies provided insights into the process of collaboration and the characteristics necessary for a successful and sustainable artistic collaboration. The data gained through observation, interviews, and collation as well as QSR computer software analysis from the selected case studies, when coupled with information gained from current literature on artistic collaborative practices was utilised to formulate a model for collaboration. These findings were compared and contrasted to collaborative processes operating in various sectors such as the arts, technology, the community and education. The findings present an extensive list of factors and characteristics which are essential in initiating and maintaining a collaborative process, resulting in a recommended arts model for those wishing to engage in the collaborative process. v Table of Contents: Volume 1 Declaration of Originality ______________________________________________ii Permission to Copy___________________________________________________ iii Acknowledgements___________________________________________________ iv Abstract_____________________________________________________________v Table of Contents: Volume 1___________________________________________ vi Tables & Figures ____________________________________________________ ix Tables ________________________________________________________________ ix Figures________________________________________________________________ ix Chapter 1: Studies of Collaboration ______________________________________1 Background to the Study ________________________________________________________3 Changing Role of the Artist ______________________________________________________4 Perceptions of Art Making _______________________________________________________4 Groups and Leadership _________________________________________________________5 Main Objective of the Study______________________________________________________6 Research Questions ____________________________________________________________6 Design of the Study ____________________________________________________________7 Qualitative Research Rationale ___________________________________________________7 Case Study Attributes___________________________________________________________7 Phenomenology _______________________________________________________________8 Methods _____________________________________________________________________8 Study Participants _____________________________________________________________9 Contemporary Art Context______________________________________________________11 Timeline for the Study _________________________________________________________12 Definition of Terms ___________________________________________________________13 Limitations of the Study ________________________________________________________13 Conclusion __________________________________________________________________14 Chapter 2: Understandings of Collaboration ______________________________15 What is Collaboration?

  • Artist: David Larwill
    Artist: David Larwill "Art from the Heart” David Larwill (B. 1956 - D. 2011) A founding member of the legendary Roar Studios of Brunswick Street Fitzroy Melbourne, today David Larwill is recognised as a highly significant figure in Australian abstract art of the 1980s and beyond. Roar’s manifesto was “art from the heart”. The original Roar Studio was located in an old shoe factory and run as a co-op. It enabled a group of emerging artists to become established outside of the commercial gallery world of the 1980s. Roar Studio artists acknowledge early Sid Nolan works, and those of John Perceval and Danila Vassillieff as Figurative Expressionist influences. Roar was an artist-run gallery and it took an avant-garde approach in the tradition of the Angry Penguins literary group. "It was a reaction against the art establishment of the time and provoked a major reassessment of the Melbourne art scene," Larwill said of the philosophy behind Roar. As a co-founder of Roar Studios with Mark Schaller and Peter Ferguson in 1982, Larwill quickly attracted notice. He built a reputation for his fresh, expressionist art executed with bold colour and a naïve exuberance. His first showing was two works hung in the Roar opening exhibition; his second was a one-man Roar show. "I just wanted to paint and I wanted people to smile when they looked at my paintings.” Larwill said of those years. * An early painting, “The Restaurant Bill” hung in Fitzroy’s Black Cat café – another local icon founded by Henry Maas, where the artists drank coffee.

    MENZIES AUSTRALIAN & INTERNATIONAL FINE ART & SCULPTURE Sydney 24 September 2015 Several of the best works in this sale are well above the buying budgets of my clients, so as usual I have not written about them. This is a shame, because if any of you has a spare $350,000, Ian Fairweather’s Fascismo is a superb late painting and easily museum standard. But overall it’s an interesting sale containing some unusual and offbeat items. So I have taken the opportunity to introduce some new artists I’ve not previously recommended, and to reiterate my enthusiasm for a couple of others I’ve had little success with. Other works I’ve not recommended because I have no-one collecting in the area, for example the two terrific 1973 prints by US pop master Jim Dine, or the 1976 screenprint by Bridget Riley, the major figure in the international op art movement. I hope you enjoy seeing some new artists and, as always, I am very pleased to discuss any works of interest to you that I have not included in the presentation. JOHN CRUTHERS rococo pop pty ltd In a recent sale I recommended a painting by Albert Tucker called Woman 1950, of a prostitute standing in a doorway in a bombed-out looking Paris. I commented that the years Tucker spent overseas, roughly 1947-60, represented a highpoint in his work. He saw a lot of great art, worked hard and strove to produce work that measured up to the best contemporary art he was seeing. The current work is a study in which Tucker tries a variety of stylistic devices borrowed from late cubism to depict the female form in interior space.

  • Art Fair Catalogue 16 Aug19
    Akiko Nagino Japanese paper-cut artist Akiko Nagino the body of work is based on Nagino’s longstanding interest in patterns found in the everyday; the sky, walls, roads, leaves, vegetables, and insects (especially those which scare her, such as patterns found in butterfly wings).In her art practice, she muses on what a pattern is - beautiful, intimidating, absolute, and distorted. The power of a pattern can draw the observer in, captivate and fascinate them. Nagino’s love of Japanese culture and training in Japanese lacquer work are evident in her highly traditional and disciplined style. Akiko came from Japan 4years ago , I studied craft at the University in Japan. After that I was making jewellerywith a Japanese lacquer which is a sap and used in traditional craft work. She loves the Japanese culture and in the course of learning Japanese lacquer I have developed a traditional style, and have learned to apply a range of different techniques. Currently I am experimenting with more primitive expressions. My next body of work at Nepier will be similar to that of my currant exhibition at YSG which involves a hanging and lighting installation.

  • Antarctic Animation: Gestures and Lines Describe a Changing Environment
    Antarctic Animation: Gestures and lines describe a changing environment By Lisa Roberts A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy College of Fine Arts, The University of New South Wales. October 2010 Dedication I dedicate this work with love to my children Josef and Katherine, grandchildren Joshua and Benjamin, and to my teachers Lenton Parr, Simon Pockley and Kathryn Yeo. i Abstract The need to engage the public with accurate information about climate change is urgent. Antarctica has become the focus of research for scientists and artists who seek to understand the complex forces at work. Different perceptions of Antarctica are surveyed. These perceptions are expressed through data sets, art works, dances, words, tones of voice and gestures. An iconography of primal gestural forms is iden- tified that has been used since pre-history to make visible expressions of connection to the natural world. The primary research methodology is practice-based. Interviews with expedi- tioners, online responses and improvised movement workshops are used as sources for animations and art works. Animated forms arise from circling, spiraling, and crossing gestures. These ancient choreographies describe the dynamic structures that shape the Antarctic ecosystem and reflect structures within the body through which they are generated. Animations are presented at international conferences and exhibitions of Antarc- tic arts and sciences. An online log is used to display the animations and invite responses. The responses are evaluated. Archetypal gestural forms are found to expand the meaning of climate change data. Recognition of these primal forms (as body knowledge) is found to add a dimension of meaning to scientific information that is an essential component of accurate communication.
