    Internationally Acclaimed Australian Artist Evert Ploeg (Pronounced Ay

    Internationally acclaimed Australian Artist Evert Ploeg (pronounced Ay-vert Plough), won his first painting award at sixteen, and used his prize money to buy photographic dark room equipment; this would set the tone of his artistic life, wanting to record, capture and create. Evert has an impressive seven major portraits in the Australian National Portrait Gallery, Canberra including a portrait of esteemed art collector, the late John Schaeffer OAM. His work is held in distinguished private and corporate collections such as the University of Melbourne, The Australian War Memorial and The Australian Broadcasting Corp. (b.1963) Raised in Sydney with an Australian / Dutch heritage, Evert credits an early introduction to the Dutch master Frans Hals and his bold brushwork, with influencing his realist painting direction. He graduated from Dress Design at East Sydney Technical College now The National Art School in 1984 and began a career in commercial illustration and publishing. National recognition was gained in 1997 when his portrait of the ABC’s beloved Bananas in Pyjamas was controversially rejected by the AGNSW’s Archibald Prize, however two years later he won its People’s Choice Award with a portrait of Australian actress Deborah Mailman. He continued his success again when he later won the Archibald’s Packing Room Prize and another People’s Choice win in 2007. He has won The Shirley Hannan National Portrait Prize and The Holding Redlich People’s Choice Award at The Salon des Refusés. Internationally, Evert has twice been long listed in The BP Portrait Award in London, and has been awarded “Life Long Signature Status” by The Portrait Society of America in recognition of his many successes there, including the PSoA’s Best of Show, Certificates of Excellence and First Place in their various Members Only competitions.

    BTN: Episode 12 Transcript 15/5/18 Hey, Amelia here, welcome to BTN. Coming up today. • We hear about how kids in Hawaii are coping with a massive volcanic eruption. • Find out more about Australia's future in space. • And we investigate the mysterious and fascinating journey of toilet water. Iran Nuclear Deal Reporter: Ruby Cornish INTRO: Last week the US President, Donald Trump made international headlines by pulling out of a deal. It was an agreement between Iran and a bunch of other countries and it was drawn up to try to stop Iran making nuclear weapons. But President Trump was not a fan. Let's find out more about the deal and why the president said no deal. Back before he was President of the United States, Donald Trump was famous for a different reason. He was a businessman, and he spoke a lot about making deals. He even wrote an entire book about it, fittingly called The Art of the Deal. But there's one deal Donald Trump's definitely not a fan of, and that's the Iran Nuclear Deal. So, what's the big deal about this big deal anyway? To understand that, we need to travel back a few years and over to Iran, which is right over here in the Middle East. In 2015 Iran had spent a decade living under strict sanctions. Sanctions are rules and restrictions, and in this case, they were set by an international organisation called the United Nations. The sanctions restricted Iran's trade with other countries and excluded it from cultural events.
