  • Donald Brook, Inhibodress and the Emergence of Post-Studio Art in Early 1970S Sydney
    Heather Barker and Charles Green, Flight from the Object: Donald Brook, Inhibodress and the Emergence of Post-Studio Art in Early 1970s Sydney HEATHER BARKER AND CHARLES GREEN Flight from the Object: Donald Brook, Inhibodress and the Emergence of Post-Studio Art in Early 1970s Sydney ABSTRACT In the early 1970s, within the small art worlds of Melbourne and Sydney, the contributions of art theorist Donald Brook were as crucial to the innovation of Conceptual art as the art itself. He was an important, prescient but ultimately lonely participant in these developments, as were artists Peter Kennedy and Mike Parr, and alternative Sydney galleries Inhibodress and the University of Sydney workshop, Tin Sheds. Brook considered that national identity was irrelevant in art; was resolutely concerned with art but not at all concerned with “Australian art”. He was opposed to a methodology that excluded everything that did not fit into a preconceived and often teleological system, insisting that if a theory could not account for post-object art then the theory was flawed and not the art. While conceding that there may have been a basis for claims that post- object art was ‘simply not art’, he criticised conservatives for resisting post-object art, insisting that the issue was still to be argued. Introduction This essay examines the turn away from defensive nationalism to internationalist autobiography in the art and theories of contemporary art during the early 1970s. It is paradoxical that this turn occurred in the process of young artists’ disillusionment with an art movement that was the most truly globalised and the least tainted by nationalism or provincialism – Conceptual art.

  • Hunters and Gatherers of the New
    iIntroduction: Hunters and Gatherers of the New The artist picks up the message of cultural and technological challenge decades before its trans- forming impact occurs. He, then, builds models or Noah's arks for facing the change that is at hand. Marshall McLuhan1 The primary purpose of this book is to uncover the history of the development, in Australia, of art that in some manner utilizes technological (and especially electronic) means in its realization. It covers the period from shortly after the inception of com- puters in Australia (around 1951) until 1975. In doing this, I will look at not only the artists and the artworks they produced but also at the evolution and use of computing technologies and video displays as they developed into the forms that artists could use to make images and the other things that artists make (e.g., videotapes, installa- tions, performances, etc.). This requires that I also look at the relationships that artists may have had with the application of these technologies andmost importantthe artworks that were made for them. Image production technologies are not the only technologies to be examined but, as my bias here is toward the visual arts, they form the primary focus. Although some of the artworks that I will be looking at are the product of existing electrical technologies, a major portion of the work produced during this early period of art and technology required the incorporation of recently developed electronic and computing devices into the art-making process and thus required a great deal of col- laboration between those who were able to handle the technologies and those whose interests lay in using the technology to make new artworks.

  • The Works of Bert Flugelman Rebekah Martin. SI
    VISA2401- Sculpture. Sem.1. 2012 Essay- The Works of Bert Flugelman Rebekah Martin. SI: 2094136 Bert Flugelman is one of Australia’s most prominent Public Space Sculptors. He was born in1923 in Austria and migrated to Australia with his parents in 1938 to avoid persecution by the German’s at the start of World War Two. In 1948 he attended the National Art School and then travelled overseas to develop his art practise, which remained eclectic in style and media for many years. In 1951 he contracted polio whilst overseas and became partially paralysed. In 1956 Flugelman returned to Sydney and began an art teaching career that has spanned his artistic career and various moves around Australia. He has major sculptural works, mostly in stainless steel, displayed across the nation, with many in Adelaide, Woolongong and Sydney and surrounding areas, all places where he has lived for extensive periods of time across his lifetime. In 1968 he was heavily influenced by an exhibition of work by Australian formalist colour abstractionists, whose focus was on colour and form with the artists personality deliberately kept distant from the works. Other influences on his developing sculptural practice include Romanian Sculptor Constantin Brancusi and US sculptor David Smith. In 1968 Flugelman received his first major commission. It is an untitled piece, affectionately known to generations of students at Wollongong University as ‘the egg-beaters’. This fountain was commissioned whilst the Bruce Hall was under construction so he was able to develop the piece to specifically complement this site’s architecture. This awareness was important to his later public works, which invariably where chosen from maquettes he had Rebekah Martin VISA 2401- Sculpture Bert Flugelman- Artist Study Page 1 made without a specific site in mind.

  • WOLLONGONG ART GALLERY 26 JUNE - 1 NOVEMBER 2015 Months the Phrase ‘All Roads Lead to Rome’ Was One That Often Came to Mind
    The Road to Wollongong The Road to FOREWORD The Road to Wollongong examines the landscape of the Illawarra via a number of diverse historical Wollongong and contemporary artworks. These works take us down the important paths and tracks, low roads and Curated by Joseph Davis and Ione Davis highways that connect the people and places of this region. When thinking about this show over the past several WOLLONGONG ART GALLERY 26 JUNE - 1 NOVEMBER 2015 months the phrase ‘all roads lead to Rome’ was one that often came to mind. This proverb suggests that different paths can lead one to the same place and, although not necessarily referring to physical paths, it does resonate strongly with this exhibition – as all roads in this exhibition lead to Wollongong, the metaphorical ‘Rome’. The Illawarra with its magnificent escarpment and pristine sweeping coastline has attracted many artists since the first European settlements in this area in the early 1800s. This exhibition includes some well-known and lesser known images of this area and provides some new perspectives of Wollongong and Illawarra. The Road to Wollongong is part of the Gallery’s Visiting Curator Program which brings new and interesting perspectives to our exhibition program. Wollongong Art Gallery would like to thank the curators Joe and Ione Davis for their passion and insights while developing this project and we hope that you will be both engaged and surprised by this exhibition John Monteleone Program Director Geoffrey Northover, Looking south west towards Unanderra, c. 1940’s, print of scanned original negative.

  • Practitioner's Statement
    Phoebe Tsakalos Practitioner’s Statement As an exploration into what once was, I have chosen to paint two of Adelaide’s iconic landmarks. Described as resembling everything from World War II anti-tank fortifications to a windswept canyon, the “Sculpture Garden’’ of sloping concrete pillars painted in geometric patterns in primary colours has been the subject of controversy ever since West German sculptor Otto Herbert Hajek was commissioned to design it for the Adelaide Festival Theatre Plaza in 1973. Officially titled City Sign, over the years, time has worn it down. Hajek meant for it to be the central feature of the Festival Centre precinct, seeing the space as an ‘artificial garden’. Apart from Bert Flugelman’s ‘Spheres’ in Rundle Mall, it is possibly Adelaide’s best known public artwork, and it has polarised opinion like non-other. He wanted it to be a walk-in sculpture the public could utilise as a meeting place, for entertainment and enjoyment. Hajek would be disappointed with the current condition of City Sign. He never wanted the various pieces of the sculpture to be separated from each other as he felt this would undermine the integrity of the entire work. He was also reluctant to allow modifications or maintenance to the work which would change it in any way. This possibly has contributed to its demise. My second painting features the recently demolished, Maughan Church. Built in 1965, this Neo Gothic church was named after the late Reverend James Maughan. Its design incorporated an octagonal, twenty-four-gabled roof designed by architect, Sir Eric von Schramek.
