WAYOUT: WITH PRINT

Curated by Linda Swinfield
WAYOUT Gallery
71 Angus Avenue, Kandos
22 October 2022 – 11 December 2022

Participating Artists:

Anthea Boesenberg

Therese Kenyon

Jan Melville

Patricia Wilson-Adams

Sandra Winkworth

WayOut: with Print evolved from a previous hybrid printmaking exhibition at Maitland Regional Art Gallery in 2020 that in its own way was perceived as “way out”.

In WayOut: with Print, this group of eight artists investigates notions of contemporary printmaking. The artists’ work selected here is by no means the complete breadth of the practice, it is merely a sprinkle.

Each of the artists were selected because of their multi-disciplinary studio practices, with print as well as other media and each artist has a background within the tradition of editioning prints and the ability to work within the canon of those traditions. What is important within WayOut: with Print is that the artists also expand, stretch and disrupt how we traditionally see printmaking. This is a break-away group pushing the boundaries of printmaking, experi- menting and questioning those studio-based traditions. They are all freeing themselves from the traditions within the canon of art that sees print as an adjunct and extension of other art forms.

Graham Marchant Solo Exhibition @ Artsite Contemporary Gallery, Camperdown.

The Mist That Follows Rain
Graham Marchant Solo Exhibition

“On my morning walks and through observing the neighbouring gardens from my studio, I became enthralled with how the mist that followed the rain enveloped everything, blanketing the landscape, and dissolving space. The opaque skies concealed and at times revealed a transformed view of the exiting terrain.”

The Mist That Follows Rain is a marked turning point in Graham Marchant’s work since relocating from Balmain in the Inner West to Leura in the Blue Mountains in 2021. Along with the dramatic change in landscape, Graham noticed the vast difference in climactic conditions and the effect they had on the immediate environment – the backdrop for inspiration.

“The studio still lives, and my drawings are a continuation of my preoccupation with detail and playing with the juxtaposition of flora, decorative material, quilts and calligraphy. And my fixation with poppies and orchids remains a subject matter that allows me to explore the changing nuances of light, transparency and texture.”

The Mist That Follows Rain is a solo exhibition by Graham Marchant, showing at Artsite Galleries from 08 October until 30 October 2022.

Janet Parker Smith @ Art Space on the Concourse, Willoughby, in Cities Foretold

September 19, 2022 by Anthea Boesenberg Leave a Comment

Exhibition Dates: 1 September to 2 October 2022

Artists reimagine our urban landscape.

Cities Foretold is a Council curated contemporary art exhibition which reimagines the Chatswood CBD and the future of all cities in general. Part of the Emerge Festival, this exhibition focusses on ideas relating to how future cityscapes will look and function. More than just a physical imprint on a map, cities are places where we converge, live, work and connect. As the world faces unprecedented rates of urban expansion, issues such as Climate Change and social and economic inequalities have been brought into sharp focus. As these challenges arise, we need to create a new vision for the urban landscape and the way in which cities operate. Featuring installation, sculpture, printmaking, drawing, video, technology-based art and temporary public art, this group of artists re-think the role of cities in the future.

The exhibition also includes a community-based program, the Emerge Willoughby Map Project. Join artist Janet Parker-Smith for weekend drop-in workshops to learn about printmaking and to contribute to a bas relief version of the Emerge Willoughby Map.

A Willoughby City Council curated group exhibition, presented in partnership with Emerge Festival 2022.

The exhibition will take place across Art Space on The Concourse and The Concourse Outdoor Area.

ARTISTS: Louise Allerton, Tracey Clement, Kalanjay Dhir, ek.1 (Emma Hicks and Katie Louise Williams), Zachariah Fenn, Sarah Fitzgerald, Karen Lee and Janet Parker-Smith.

This work has also been selected by the Print Council for its 2022 Print Commission.
