  • Jenny Sages Transience of Time
    Jenny Sages Transience of Time King Street Gallery on William 10am – 6pm Tuesday – Saturday 177 William St Darlinghurst NSW 2010 Australia T: 61 2 9360 9727 F: 61 2 9331 4458 [email protected] www.kingstreetgallery.com.au 1 Jenny Sages (born 1933, Shanghai; arrived Australia 1948; lives in Sydney) Jenny Sages’ understated paintings have a quiet, nuanced beauty. Her vision is abstract, organic, poetic and intuitive rather than rational and representational. It is both intimate and overarching, but never detached. Her abstraction is grounded in the small details of organic life - the shapes, the tones and textures of vegetation, the desiccated skins of animals, the weathered patina of abandoned things. Yet it is imbued also with a larger, more ineffable dimension. This may have something to do with a poetics of immanence, the apprehension of beauty and meaning that is encoded in the nature of things, and connecting the organic, mortal universe. Her paintings are testaments to her sense of connection with the natural environment of the inland. For twenty four years from the mid 1980s until 2008 Sages made annual sojourns with groups of women friends to walk the land and paint the landscape. Over many years of trekking through the landscape of Central and Northern Australia she developed lasting friendships with local indigenous people, and has gained a partial insight into their traditional relationship with the land. Her approach to abstraction is not imitative of Aboriginal art but there are affinities evident in her repetitive organic rhythms and textures, and in the underlying allusions to nature as a well-spring of spiritual understanding.

Pam Tippett Self-portrait (for a change) 38 oil on canvas The title of Pam Tippett’s self-portrait is both literal and ironic. ‘It’s the first portrait I’ve done in six years, so it is a change,’ says the artist, who is best known for her still-life paintings. ‘But it’s ironic as well because when I do paint a portrait, it’s usually a self-portrait – I’m always available, I don’t get bored or need to flatter myself.’ Assess Tippett’s gaze.
