After a small but enthusiastic opening, our exhibition has been forced to close because of COVID. There cannot be an extension of the exhibition, because of course, new exhibitions have been scheduled to follow ours. To the Edges will continue until 1 August 2021. Here’s hoping there is not an extension of the lockdown.

The Curator and Artists in Conversation has been rescheduled From Sunday 4th July, 2 – 3pm, to Sunday 25th July, 11am – 1pm. Booking is necessary. Go Here to book and for further information.

In the meantime, you can see the catalogue and the video of Sasha Grishin’s Opening Speech on the Exhibitions page.

 

 

 

 

To the Edges: 60 years of Sydney Printmakers, Artists in Conversation

by 3 Comments

Artists in Conversation                         Sunday, 4 July 2021 – 2.00pm to 4.00pm

By considering the use of the printmaking media in innovative and unconventional ways, as well as co-opting new media in the development of their works, the artists of Sydney Printmakers have worked ‘to the edges’ physically and metaphorically pushing their materials, ideas and themselves to their limits.

Sydney Printmakers is the longest-running independent printmaking membership organisation in Australia. It continues to demonstrate its currency in the quality and diversity of the work its artists create, and in the collegiate way its members work to share ideas and resources, and to support each other. As a group, it is thriving – and celebrates its sixty-year milestone with this especially curated exhibition.

Here is an opportunity to hear some members of Sydney Printmakers talk about their work in conversation with Katherine Roberts, Senior Curator, Manly Art Gallery and Museum. 

Participating artists:

Karen Ball
Tina Barahanos
Susan Baran
Anthea Boesenberg
Danielle Creenaune
Angela Hayson
Roz Kean
Carmen Ky
Gary Shinfield
Wendy Stokes
