The Commercial THE COMMERCIAL LILLIAN O’NEIL Lillian O’Neil (b. 1985, Melbourne) works in large-scale, kaleidoscopic, analogue collage cut from pre-digital books and magazines. The ongoing search for and mass accumulation of material is an important component of her process. Her vast library of material forms a kind of atlas of human activities, interests and beliefs from which she cuts images. O’Neil’s works bring latent content to a conscious plane through both poetic constraint and accumulated fragments. Poetic constraint allows her to make unexpected combinations by re-contextualising imagery while accumulated fragments provide immense variation within generalised repetition. The outcomes of these two distinct threads are a kind of pop-sci-fi imagery structured by architectonic human figures and a decidedly more monochromatic melancholia. In the former, humans are the players within an ambiguous narrative. In the latter, humans are absent and her imagery operates more like a mood or texture of thought. Both types sit side-by-side in her practice. 2018 marks a year of significant international research for O'Neil. In April, she will be traveling to the United Kingdom to attend Collage, Montage, Assemblage: Collected and Composite Forms, 1700 – Present, a major conference at the University of Edinburgh, followed by a period of research at the National Archives, London, supported by a grant from the Australia Council for the Arts. Later in the year, she will be taking up a three-month studio residency at Youkobo Art Space, Tokyo, supported by Asialink and Creative Victoria. O'Neil completed a Master of Fine Art at Sydney College of the Arts, The University of Sydney in 2012 supervised by artist, Mikala Dwyer. Solo exhibitions include Escape Velocity, The Commercial (2017); Pause before the fall, The Commercial, Sydney (2015); The Lonely Isle, The Commercial, Sydney (2014). In 2014, she presented a two-person exhibition, Isle of Somewhere, with Laura Delaney at West Space, Melbourne. In 2013 The Centre for Contemporary Photography, Melbourne, commissioned O’Neil to create a billboard for the CCP/City of Yarra Billboard. Total Romance, was her first solo exhibition at The Commercial, Sydney (2013), Love Machine at MOP, Sydney (2012) and Cream at Firstdraft Gallery, Sydney (2010). Group exhibitions include the NSW Visual Arts Fellowship (Emerging), curated by Alexie Glass at Artspace, Sydney (2014); In the Cut – collage as idea (which included works by Ellen Gallagher, Richard Larter, Linder, Elizabeth Newman, David Maljkovic, Henning Bohl, Tom Burr, Nikolas Gambaroff, Matthew Griffin, Mathew Hale, Ry Haskings, Henrik Olesen, Lillian O’Neil, Lia Perjovschi, Amanda Ross-Ho, Kelley Walker) curated by Hannah Matthews, at the Australian Centre for Contemporary Art, Melbourne; Pantone 705 C, The Mews Project Space, London; Living in the Ruins of the Twentieth Century, curated by Adam Jasper and Holly Williams, UTS Gallery, The University of Technology, Sydney (all 2013); THREE/THREE at The Commercial Gallery, Sydney (2012); House of Love at Seventh Gallery, Melbourne (2011); Super Market, curated by Kim Brockett, at Gertrude Contemporary Art Spaces (2010); Evolution, as part of the Next Wave Festival, Melbourne (2010); Group Group Show, curated by DAMP, at Margaret Lawrence Gallery, The University of Melbourne (2008). As part of the group Safari Team, O’Neil exhibited in a collaborative solo exhibition, Molto Morte, that toured in Australia and Canada (international venues were Galerie VAV, Concordia University, Montréal and Lab Synthèse, Montréal) (2008). O’Neil has been awarded numerous grants including those from the Australia Council for the Arts, Arts Victoria, Melbourne City Council, the Besen Foundation and traveling awards from both Monash University and Sydney College of the Arts, The University of Sydney. Her work has appeared in Architectural Digest, Art Collector, Art Monthly, Australian Vogue, Belle Magazine, Photofile and VAULT. In a recent issue of VAULT Magazine, Sydney architect Nick Tobias identifies his Lillian O'Neil collage as a highlight of his collection: "I remember when we saw it and it was just overwhelming. For me it continues to overwhelm. A lot of these other works have very subtle storylines, but that work is epic. It's historical, it's contemporary; it could be about your own life and its twists and turns. To me it's like a whole novel wrapped up in one collage." O’Neil’s work is in the collections of the Anne and Gordon Samstag Museum of Art, Adelaide; Artbank; the Art Gallery of New South Wales, Sydney; the BresicWhitney Collection, Sydney; and the National Gallery of Australia, Canberra. 148 Abercrombie Street Redfern NSW | PO Box 830 Strawberry Hills NSW 2012 Australia +61 (0)2 8096 3292 [email protected] www.thecommercialgallery.com .

These theatres are theirs.’ Leigh Robb, Curator, Monster Theatres Adelaide, Australia: The Art Gallery of South Australia today announced the artist line-up and the curatorial theme for the 2020 Adelaide Biennial of Australian Art: Monster Theatres: Abdul Abdullah (NSW) Mike Bianco (WA) Polly Borland (VIC) Michael Candy (QLD) Megan Cope (VIC) Erin Coates and Anna Nazzari (WA) Julian Day (NSW) Karla Dickens (NSW) Mikala Dwyer (VIC) Brent Harris (VIC) Aldo Iacobelli (SA) Pierre Mukeba (SA) David Noonan (VIC) Mike Parr (NSW) Julia Robinson (SA) Yhonnie Scarce (SA/VIC) Garry Stewart and Australian Dance Theatre (SA) Stelarc (VIC) Kynan Tan (NSW) Mark Valenzuela (SA) Willoh S.

In response to the curatorial premise, artists are invited to make visible the monsters of now. Curator Leigh Robb says, ‘Monsters ask us to interrogate our relationships with each other, the environment and technology. They force us to question our empathy towards difference across race, gender, sexuality and spirituality.

  • Mossgreen Fine Australian & International Art
    mossgreen Fine Australian & International Art Melbourne Tuesday 2 June 2015 Mossgreen continues its push to join Sotheby’s, Menzies and Deutscher and Hackett in conducting regular mixed vendor sales featuring a wide range of material spanning colonial to contemporary. The current sale includes some significant works, the stand-outs being from the collections of Ian Gowrie Smith, Suncorp and an anonymous Perth collector. Unfortunately while their specialists have been able to pull in some good works, the time and attention they can give to each work is very limited. This is particularly noticeable in terms of researching individual works and establishing their exhibition history and provenance – very few details are provided, even for major works. Nor are they interested in essays or other supporting material that adds to our knowledge and to the experience of viewing the works. In addition to the fresh material, there are several lots unsold from the Boxer Collection, which was auctioned late last year. These include as interesting work by Arthur Boyd. Note that I have not been able to view this sale. When I was in Melbourne last weekend it was in Sydney, and vice versa. So I have asked a colleague to view it in Melbourne and report back. I’ve also received condition reports from Mossgreen and will point out in any issues in my notes. JOHN CRUTHERS rococo pop pty ltd 1.
