Diploma Lecture Series 2011 Art and Australia Ll: European Preludes and Parallels Cubism and Australian Art from 1940 Lesley
Diploma Lecture Series 2011 Art and Australia ll: European Preludes and Parallels Cubism and Australian art from 1940 Lesley Harding 8 / 9 June 2011 Lecture summary: This lecture will consider the impact of the revolutionary and transformative movement of Cubism on Australian art from the 1940s to the present day. Described in 1912 by French poet and commentator Guillaume Apollinaire as ‘not an art of imitation, but one of conception’, Cubism irreversibly altered art’s relationship to visual reality. ‘I paint things as I think them, not as see them’, Picasso said. By its very nature, Cubism is characterised by variation and change. Although there was no cubist movement in Australia per se, its appearance in Australian art parallels its uptake and re-interpretation by artists internationally. By viewing Cubism as a set of stylistic and conceptual discoveries, rather than as a style defined by a particular period, we can trace the adaptation and evolution of cubist ideas and influences over successive decades and uncover its ongoing relevance to Australian art. In the early years, an interest in Cubism signaled a desire to be modern, a vanguard position taken against the parochial predominance of landscape painting in Australia at that time. While early Cubism broke down the pictorial subject, resulting in fragmentary images with multiple viewpoints and overlapping planes, the later inclusion of collage elements such as newsprint and wallpaper into paintings (often referred to as Synthetic Cubism) was the beginning of the idea that real objects could be incorporated into artworks, which opened up new possibilities for the treatment of reality in art. -

ART Art Gallery of NSW GALLERY NSW 5 September – 29 November 2009 TACKLING THE FIELD 2 Tackling The Field Natalie Wilson The Event It was billed as the gala occasion of 1968, if not the decade. The lavish and much anticipated opening of the magnificently re-sited National Gallery of Victoria was held on the brisk winter evening of Tuesday, 20 August that year. The new building on St Kilda Road – the first phase of the $20 million Victorian Arts Centre complex – boasted a collection valued over $25 million, with its most valuable paintings, including works by Rembrandt, Tiepolo and Cézanne, acquired through the magnanimous bequest of industrialist Alfred Felton. In the towering Great Hall, intended for State receptions and banquets, the multi- hued glass ceiling by the Melbourne artist Leonard French – one of the world’s largest pieces of suspended stained glass – shimmered with radiant flashes of brilliant colour. As Evan Williams reported in the Sydney Morning Herald the following day, ‘with a candle-lit banquet, special exhibitions and seminars, a symphony concert, a trumpet fanfare composed for the occasion, it is some 1 opening’.

Mike Parr Blind Self Portraits
ARNDT BERLIN POTSDAMER STRASSE 96 10785 BERLIN GERMANY PHONE +49 30 206 138 70 [email protected] WWW.ARNDTBERLIN.COM MIKE PARR BLIND SELF PORTRAITS 21 SEPTEMBER – 02 NOVEMBER 2013 FOREWORD I knew of Mike Parr’s performance work long before I was aware it was the work of an Australian artist. When I moved to Australia with my family two years ago, my goal was to focus on bringing major international and Asian art to Australia and the best work from Southeast Asia to Europe. I decided to leave Australian art to the experts, who could serve the work far better. On a number of occasions over the past twenty-five years of my career, reality has shown that exceptions need to be made, and this was now the case with Australian art. For whenever and wherever I went in Australia – museums, foundations and private collections – I saw the most stunning, breathtaking works by Mike Parr. For the past twenty years my mission in Berlin has been to bring major artists and their work to audiences who would otherwise not encounter these radical positions, and this mission continues for the Asia-Pacific art landscapes. When Mike Parr and I finally met about his work, we discovered our missions and visions overlapped. I felt strongly that his work needed to be seen and engaged within a European context. Meanwhile, he was prepared to dedicate two years of creation towards an exhibition of new work in Berlin. The result: Berlin and Western audiences connect immediately and instinctively with Mike Parr’s work, without questioning whether they are viewing the work of an Australian artist. -
Gordon Craig Thesis (PDF 2MB)
Out of the Shadows: The Mezzotints of Graeme Peebles ♦ Gordon Craig Visual Arts Department Creative Industries Faculty Queensland University of Technology This thesis is presented as part of the requirements for the award of the Degree of Master of Arts (Research) 2005 Keywords Peebles, Graeme; Young, Bill; art; printmaking; mezzotint; Melbourne; Point Lonsdale; Eucumbene; metaphysics. Abstract Out of the Shadows: The Mezzotints of Graeme Peebles investigates Victorian printmaker Graeme Peebles’ engagement with the mezzotint medium since the early 1970s. Over fifty works from the artist’s oeuvre of nearly 300 mezzotints are examined to demonstrate Peebles’ high quality technical skills and his unique approach to subject matter. This has ranged from enigmatic, surrealist-inspired subject matter to landscapes of the Lake Eucumbene region in the Kosciusko National Park, which range from the ominous and foreboding to the romantic and sublime. In this thesis I explore the intellectual groundwork on which much of Peebles work is based. In doing so I am redressing the imbalance between the popularity of Peebles’ work and the lack of critical writing about his art. While his work has been widely collected (see for instance the list of Public Collections that contain holdings of Peebles’ work, on page 96), to date his work has not received the attention as deserved by a master of their chosen medium. In reviewing his work in such a manner I believe that Peebles deserves greater recognition in contemporary Australian Art. In conjunction with this thesis I have curated an exhibition bearing the same title, which was displayed at the QUT Art Museum, Brisbane, 12 March – 30 May 2004. -

A Report on Survey Exhibitions in Australian Public Museums in the 1970S
HOLMES Jonathan Going Solo: a report on survey exhibitions in Australian public museums in the 1970s Abstract Solo survey exhibitions have been an important way in which the work of Australian artists has been critically reviewed and assessed. In the 1970s and early 1980s a flurry of survey exhibitions were mounted by the State Galleries, allowing the oeuvre of a large number of artists to be examined. Later in the 1980s and in the 1990s, the number of survey exhibitions being mounted by the State Galleries seemed to diminish quite dramatically as curatorial staff began to focus on other forms of exhibition. Jonathan Holmes, Jeff Malpas, Paul Zika, Maria Kunda and David Hansen have been investigating the part played by solo survey exhibitions in the history of Australian art since the mid-1970s. This paper will present the first findings of the research team – a survey of solo exhibitions in the 1970s - and will offer an early assessment of their significance in the broader context of contemporary Australian art and its critical discourse during that period. Biography Associate Professor Jonathan Holmes took up a teaching position at the Tasmanian School of Art in 1974, tutoring in Art History and Theory. He was appointed lecturer when the Tasmanian School of Art became a faculty of the University of Tasmania in 1981. His most recent exhibitions have been Figure It, a show that was developed, with Maria Kunda, to coincide with a National Portrait Gallery of Australia symposium on portraiture held in Hobart in 2001 and The Barcelona Studio: fragments of a brief history which is currently being shown in the Plimsoll Gallery.
