Primarily a figurative painter, his works responded to the world around him and his own life experiences, and they often reflected critically on society. During his career he played an active role in art politics, particularly in the 1940s, writing influential articles about the direction of art in Australia. He also held prominent positions within the art community, including President of the Contemporary Art Society in the late 1940s and again in the 1960s. Tucker grew up during the Depression and began his career as a young artist in the late 1930s, in the years leading up to the outbreak of World War II. At this time, his world was defined by financial insecurity, social inequality and war, and these concerns became the catalyst for much of his painting.

  • Irreverent Tales – Pamela Irving Artspace, 22 June-29 July 2017 Liza Dale-Hallett, Senior Curator, Sustainable Futures, Museums Victoria
    Irreverent Tales – Pamela Irving Artspace, 22 June-29 July 2017 Liza Dale-Hallett, Senior Curator, Sustainable Futures, Museums Victoria Thank you Jacquie and Pamela for the opportunity to speak here tonight. Welcome everyone to Irreverent Tales! What an exhibition. When I view Pamela Irving’s art it reminds me of why art matters. How it keeps our brains and hearts primed for living. Pamela’s YOLO Men graphically & optimistically remind us that we Only Live Once. When I look at Pamela’s art, these are the words that come to mind: Surprising Provocative Personal Joyful Fun Useful Colourful Symbolic Passionate Poetic Complex Her work has many layers of meaning & depth across time Pamela has, more than most artists, used her talents to foster creative communities and enrich our public places with vibrant and fun art. Her work is found in collections across Australia and the world. It is on our streets, in our schools. It is very firmly planted in our hearts and has become part of Melbourne’s urban legends. We are indeed very honoured to present over 30 years of Pamela Irving’s artistic practice in paintings, drawings and mosaics. It is particularly special to know that she created her first ceramic work in Box Hill. Some of these works in this exhibition have never been shown in Australia. One work on loan from Museums Victoria has not been seen publicly since 1991! 'Something old, something new, something borrowed, someone blue' – was acquired by me, as a young, just married for the first time (!), curator. It became part of the Ritual & Belief Collection within the Museums Victoria, and had been intended for the new Museum at Southbank.

  • History of the Art Horses
    05/10/18 CURATOR’S STATEMENT - ART HORSES AUSTRALIA ART HORSES - A Sculpture Exhibition of Painted Horses These Art Horses have their genesis in the phenomena of painted animal-art that has swept the world. It has included exhibitions of artist-designed cows in Zurich, Calgary, Chicago and New York, pigs in Seattle and moose in Toronto. In Australia, the horse was selected for its unique role in our history, from the settlers to the legendary Phar Lap - and, of course, the “race that stops a nation” - the Melbourne Cup. These uniquely painted and designed life-size horse and foal sculptures created by prominent and emerging Victorian artists provide an unprecedented blend of art, imagination and fun. The exhibition combines elements of street theatre and public art and they create a memorable spectacle wherever they ‘graze’! Each horse is brightly and amusingly painted to reveal the individual artist’s distinctive perspective on the tradition of ‘equine art’. They have become synonymous with the famous Spring Racing Carnival over the years. The Art Horses Collection originally included over fifty wonderfully painted horses on many themes, ranging from wild and zany to more classically executed pieces. They have been displayed throughout the City, beginning in 2000, with exhibitions running through 2015. In 2001, a major three week event entitled “Birth of an Art Horse” was staged at the Melbourne Museum, featuring notable artists at work designing and painting them. Art Horses Australia has three simple goals: • to generate artistic creativity & showcase local artists • to bring smiles & chuckles to the faces of children and adults - Melbournians and visitors alike • to raise substantial funds for a nominated charity with a major auction to be held at the conclusion of the exhibition run.

  • A Walking Tour of the Public Sculptures Along Swanston Street, Melbourne. Text Only. Michael Donnelly, First Produced, 2005, at RVIB
    “Do Touch the Sculptures” A walking tour of the public sculptures along Swanston Street, Melbourne. Text Only. Michael Donnelly, First produced, 2005, at RVIB. This revised edition, 2015, at SVRC. Copies of the Braille & Tactile Image or the Large Print & image versions of the Guide are available for loan from SVRC. Acknowledgements: I must acknowledge my indebtedness to a publication by the City of Melbourne Art and Culture Department: Public Art Works: Swanston Street & Bourke Street Mall, (c.1998) from which I have borrowed copious amounts of text and to the assistance of Andrea Kleist, Public Art Program Manager and Eddie Butler Bowdon at the Council, as well as, more recently, Lynda Roberts, Public Art Program Manager, Arts & Culture, City of Melbourne. I wish also to thank the sculptor Des McKenna for information he supplied on his Wombat sculpture. Thanks also to the Production staff at the Statewide Vision Resource Centre, Donvale. This applies also to Garry Stinchcombe, Deb Lewis and other staff who have supported me in continuing this project. Introduction: The City of Melbourne has a very rich and varied collection of public sculptures that creates, in effect, an “Open Air Sculpture Museum”. Many of the streets, building facades and parklands are punctuated by interesting sculptural pieces, many of them accessible for tactual investigation even if “no climbing” is allowed. The often contentious stretch of street scape known as the Swanston Street Walk and the adjacent Bourke Street Mall are just a small part of the overall scheme but they provide a marvellous opportunity to discover a diverse sculptural mix in relatively close proximity to each other.

We are aware of the art ‘product’ - the song, the picture, the play - but less aware of the ‘process’ which creates the product. The arts are not so much a result of inspiration and innate talent as they are a person’s capacities for creative thinking and imagining, problem solving, creative judgement and a host of other mental processes.” Artistic achievement is learning • Do I have the ability to direct artistic choices and the journey of how to unify diverse elements into student thinking? their own artistic growth?

Through their generous support our teachers are able to provide new avenues for exploration of visual and performing arts. Through the active involvement of parents at our School, they are wonderful role models in conveying to our students the many benefits of life-long involvement in art and the performing arts. Our Kaleidoscope of Colour and Culture has brought the School community together for a wonderful array of activities for students and parents. The art exhibition provides a fitting finale for a program of events which have been focused on our students and brought much colour and activity into our School. The exhibition is representative of the many mediums artists use as their canvas for expression of their imagination.
