November Exhibitions

3-18 November 2017

Opening Event: Friday 3 November 6-8pm

Artist Talks: Saturday 18 November 3-5pm

GALLERY ONE

Susan Buret
Mainly Martha

The idea of house and home for ourselves, and for the work we make, has occupied artists since Miriam Shapiro and Judy Chicago’s ground breaking exhibition Woman House in Los Angeles in 1972.

Working somewhere between art, life and decoration across painting, textiles and installation this body of works mediates my tangle of ideas and memories of house, home and agency in domestic space and its relationship to my experiences when installing exhibitions. Placing the work in the gallery space to suggest a domestic interior I hope to implicate the viewer and their own immediate context in my work. As it teeters on the edge of prettiness, with tongue in cheek, I have named the exhibition after the fallen happy homemaker Martha Stewart. In this body of work, I seek to interrogate my place as an aging female artist/compulsive decorator.

GALLERY TWO AND THE CRANNY

Place of all return
T-E-A-R Collective

Artists: Ben Adams, Carlos Agamaz Garcia, Chi Chi Menendez, Clara Chung, Danny Giles, Erin Schloeffel, Gabbi Lancaster, Giorgia De Biasi, Karolina Partyka, Marlaina Read, Michael Lai, Mija Healey, Moonhee Kim, Paula S Y Ngu, Patrick Smith, Rosanna Goslett-King

Facilitated by Hayden Fowler

A new group exhibition by T-E-A-R Collective at AirSpace Projects invites audiences to consider the environment of Smith’s Lake through the collaborative works of sixteen emerging and early career multidisciplinary artists.

Place of all return is the collective’s first exhibition, and examines the shifting contemporary relationship between humanity and the natural world, and historical and cultural influences shaping his engagement. The collective came together following an intensive experimental contemporary art lab and residency at Smith’s Lake on the NSW mid-north coast, facilitated by artist Hayden Fowler.

Corpus: Part 3

If you have never taken the time to consider how odd our relationships are with our bodies, the final phase of this unconventional display of body-oriented artifacts will facilitate your thoughts.

Tabi-Tabi Po draws upon personal experiences of Filipino superstitions and voodoo, which then serve as a metaphor for the subsequent sensations of displacement, rejection and acceptance.

Wenmin is a practising artist who specialises in drawing. She trained in Beijing and has acquired a PhD (Fine Arts) from the College of Fine Arts, UNSW. Wenmin has been teaching at a tertiary level for well over ten years and is well positioned to not only assist you to acquire skills in drawing but also to build an understanding of what drawing is and the role of drawing in contemporary art today. Li Wenmin is represented by Flinders Street Gallery.

LWoodward_Five_06 cropped (1) copy blog

Artists Susan Andrews, Allan Giddy, James Nguyen & Yin Lan Soon, Mark Titmarsh and Laura Woodward will be engaging with motion or the idea of motion to reflect on the kinds of change or states of flux experienced in the world today. Their work, which range from paintings to video and sculpture, offer a political, social, cultural, philosophical or environmental response – however abstractly or metaphorically conceived – to the change observed.

The exhibition will conclude with an In Motion projection and performance night. The normally quiet Junction Street of Marrickville will come alive for two hours on Saturday 22 November from 7.30-9.30pm as artists project and perform their work in AirSpace Projects and in neighbouring properties. Event to be opened by Marrickville Mayor, Councillor Mark Gardener, followed by a Fan demonstration by Master Sue Chang of Tai Chi Fitness Australia. See Upcoming Exhibitions for more details.
