  • Escape Artists Education
    ESCAPEartists modernists in the tropics education kit INTRODUC TION & H TEAC ERS NOTES Almost two years in development, Escape Artists: Modernists in the Tropics is the first exhibition by Cairns Regional Gallery to tour nationally. In this exhibition, you and your students will see how the tropical north of Australia has influenced Australia’s greatest artists, some of whom you will be familiar with, others less familiar. The artists featured in the exhibition are: • Harold Abbott • Valerie Albiston • Douglas Annand • Yvonne Atkinson • John Bell • Yvonne Cohen • Ray Crooke • Lawrence Daws • Russell Drysdale • Ian Fairweather • John Firth-smith • Donald Friend • Bruce Goold • Elaine Haxton • Frank Hinder • Frank Hodginson • Sydney Nolan • Alan Oldfield • Margaret Olley • John Olsen • Tony Tuckson • Brett Whitely • Fred Williams • Noel Wood The lure of an exotic, untouched, tropical paradise has a tradition in modern art beginning with Gaugin in Tahiti. It was this desire to discover and explore new worlds which attracted these artists to the Far North - a part of Australia like no other they had seen. Here they found a region of extraordinary, abundant natural beauty and a cultural pot pourri of indigenous inhabitants and people from all over the world. This exciting mixture of important artworks was assembled from major private and public collections by Gavin Wilson,curator of the successful Artists of Hill End exhibition at The Art Gallery of News South Wales. Escape Artists provides a significant look at the cultural and historic heritage of North Queensland and the rest of northern Australia. You and your students will find some pleasant surprises among the works in the exhibition.

  • European Influences in the Fine Arts: Melbourne 1940-1960
    INTERSECTING CULTURES European Influences in the Fine Arts: Melbourne 1940-1960 Sheridan Palmer Bull Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree ofDoctor ofPhilosophy December 2004 School of Art History, Cinema, Classics and Archaeology and The Australian Centre The University ofMelbourne Produced on acid-free paper. Abstract The development of modern European scholarship and art, more marked.in Austria and Germany, had produced by the early part of the twentieth century challenging innovations in art and the principles of art historical scholarship. Art history, in its quest to explicate the connections between art and mind, time and place, became a discipline that combined or connected various fields of enquiry to other historical moments. Hitler's accession to power in 1933 resulted in a major diaspora of Europeans, mostly German Jews, and one of the most critical dispersions of intellectuals ever recorded. Their relocation to many western countries, including Australia, resulted in major intellectual and cultural developments within those societies. By investigating selected case studies, this research illuminates the important contributions made by these individuals to the academic and cultural studies in Melbourne. Dr Ursula Hoff, a German art scholar, exiled from Hamburg, arrived in Melbourne via London in December 1939. After a brief period as a secretary at the Women's College at the University of Melbourne, she became the first qualified art historian to work within an Australian state gallery as well as one of the foundation lecturers at the School of Fine Arts at the University of Melbourne. While her legacy at the National Gallery of Victoria rests mostly on an internationally recognised Department of Prints and Drawings, her concern and dedication extended to the Gallery as a whole.

  • The Drunken Buddha
    Ian Fairweather: The Drunken Buddha 1 The Drunken Buddha, Ian Fairweather’s illustrated translation of a popular Chinese tale, published by University of Queensland Press (UQP) in 1965, is a rare example of a serious book-length translation from Chinese to English by an established artist. It is one of a number of translations from Chinese undertaken by Fairweather, evidence of an unusual pastime that arose from his fascination with the Chinese language. For Fairweather the publication of The Drunken Buddha was the culmination of years of work and making up for various frustrated earlier efforts to see it into print. The book was greeted by critics as a curiosity, something to add to the list of bizarre events associated with the life of the Scottish-born artist who since 1953 had lived on his own terms in a self-made hut on Bribie Island and in 1962 was declared ‘Australia’s greatest living artist.’1 Writing in 1995, Sinologist Pierre Ryckmans [Simon Leys] lamented that what should be regarded as one of UQP’s ‘proudest productions’ had been long out of print and questioned why no-one had ever asked Fairweather, while he was alive, what had motivated him to do it. ‘No sensitive and reflective artist can approach China without being profoundly affected by that experience. Fairweather’ he wrote, ‘ was certainly no exception to this rule and, for all his reticence and elusiveness, he left convincing evidence that China played an important role in his artistic and spiritual development.’2 Twenty years later, in 2015, a 50th anniversary edition of The Drunken Buddha was published by UQP to celebrate ‘Fairweather’s creative legacy.

  • John Cruthers
    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.
