  • PATRICIA PICCININI Exploring Concepts of What Is
    PATRICIA PICCININI Exploring concepts of what is ‘natural’ in the digital age, Patricia Piccinini brings a deeply personal perspective to her work. Rachel Kent notes: ‘Since the early 1990s, Piccinini has pursued an interest in the human form and its potential for manipulation and enhancement through bio-technical intervention. From the mapping of the human genome to the growth of human tissue and organs from stem cells, Piccinini’s art charts a terrain in which scientific progress and ethical questions are intertwined.’ Piccinini’s work is more often than not realised as immersive environments - ranging from the computer generated forest that is Plasticology to the turbulent ocean vista of Swell. These are multi-screen DVD installations. Sandman (2002) brings together photographs, a 16mm film and large scale sculpture. Selected to represent Australia at the 2003 Venice Biennale, Piccinini created We are Family, a project that transformed the Australian Pavilion into a home of the future. Expressing her fascination with the relationship between what is considered natural and what is considered artificial, We are Family was critically acclaimed and ARTnews America singled her out as ‘an artist to watch.’ Patricia Piccinini’s fast growing reputation is evident in solo exhibitions at the Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Photography, the Centro de Artes Visuales, Lima, the Museum of Contemporary Art Sydney and the Australian Centre for Contemporary Art, Melbourne. She has also participated in the Berlin, Gwang’ju, Liverpool and Sydney Biennales and has exhibited widely overseas and in Australia. Most recently, the Artium, Vitoria-Gasteiz in Spain presented a major solo museum exhibition of her work.

  • Pieter Koster – a Forgotten Art Critic: Ellen Augusta Chads and The
    Pieter Koster A Forgotten Art Critic: Ellen Augusta Chads and the Melbourne Art Scene 1884–86 ELLEN AUGUSTA CHADS (1837–1923) was a Melbourne author, journalist and art critic. Her name is barely known today, for although she wrote when the First Wave Feminists were beginning to have an impact on society, she could never be considered one of them. Her four books of didactic romances, published between 1882 and 1891 quickly became unfashionable and have long been forgotten.1 Her journalism for the Herald and Weekly Times is lost in unsigned articles. In later life she played a prominent role in the establishment of the Lost Dogs’ Home in North Melbourne, but this too is almost entirely unacknowledged now.2 Her life in Melbourne was one of considerable hardship. She had been born Ellen Augusta Morrison in Jersey in 1837, the youngest child of Vice Admiral Isaac Hawkins Morrison and Louisa Adams Smith, the daughter of a successful London pattern-maker. She married the widower Captain John Henry Chads in unusual circumstances on the island of Mauritius in 1865 and came to Melbourne with him in that same year. Chads’s father was Colonel John Cornell Chads, governor of the British Virgin Islands and his uncle was Admiral Sir Henry Ducie Chads K.C.M.G. His sister married Felix Bedingfeld, the youngest son of a baronet. Captain Chads’s fi rst wife had died shortly after giving birth to her third child. At the time of his marriage to Ellen, he was a regimental paymaster serving in Mauritius, where Bedingfeld was Colonial Secretary and Ellen’s brother William Lawtie Morrison was Surveyor-General.

Suas obras, ao mesmo tempo incômodas e sedutoras, mas cheias de familiaridade e doçura, geram uma empatia quase imediata junto ao público. Seu trabalho é realizado com uma grande variedade de materiais e linguagens. Com escul- turas feitas de silicone e fibra de vidro, fotografia e vídeo, passando também pelo desenho e pela pintura, as obras de Piccinini nos convidam a refletir acerca de nossos próprios sentimentos, ampliando a compreensão sobre questões complexas e delicadas como a imposição de padrões de beleza, o racismo e a xenofobia. Com uma curadoria que evidencia certa relação alquímica entre natureza e tecnologia no trabalho da artista, a mostra flerta tanto com o surrealismo como com o hiper-realismo, e questiona nossa semelhança e vínculo com os seres criados por ela. Com esta mostra, reforçamos nossa proposta de promover o acesso à cultura para os visitantes e clientes do BB, e propiciamos novas atitudes em relação à arte, além de manter nosso compromisso com a formação do público e dar sentido para a missão de ser um “banco de mercado com espírito público”.

  • Peterson Family History Part 3: 1932-49
    Peterson Family History Part 3: 1932-49 A draft of a work in progress Richard Peterson 25 August 2012 The Great Depression caused 380,000 men out of a national population of 7 million lose their jobs. By 1932, unemployment in Melbourne had risen to match that in 1893, and worse than elsewhere in Victoria. Only Germany had higher unemployment. The poorest suburbs were most affected. Wages fell and taxes rose, but because of deflation, those in full time work were better off in real terms as their wage would buy more. State and federal governments were (pre-Keynes) conservatively orthodox in paying off debt and further reducing public expenditure, deepening the Depression and significantly delaying recovery. Resurgent manufacturing industry eventually returned prosperity to Melbourne’s industrial suburbs, but it was only during World War II that unemployment disappeared (Dingle). Bolton clarifies that although wages reduced, living costs fell even further, so that those securely in work, especially middle class professionals, were scarcely aware of the 1930s as a time of hardship. He observes that many of them in later life contrasted their frugality with the more spendthrift ways of their affluent grandchildren. Yet he is cautious about romanticising claims that the simple life brightened by family entertainment and bush rambles was happier than today’s consumer society. Potts shows that the period demonstrated human capacity to adapt and survive and to take pride in that survival. Bolton warns that ‘…it is perhaps too easy to believe that after 1945, the generation who lived through these experiences wanted the security of home ownership and voted for politicians who provided them with a buoyant economy and social services’.1 1930s.
