Two Of Australia’s Most Promising Landscape Painters Address Environmentall And Ethical Issues
Two Of Australia’s Most Promising Landscape Painters Address Environmentall And Ethical Issues
Carla Hananiah - Sublime and Gary Smith - Refined. April 7 - May 1, 2010.
Carla Hananiah responds to the classic theme in art history of man’s relationship with nature. This series of tumultuous and poetic landscape paintings also have significant contemporary relevance for the threat of global warming and environmental degradation.
Carla Hananiah holds a Master of Fine Arts (MFA) from COFA and is currently undertaking a second MFA (painting) by research. She has been exhibiting since 2000.
Gary Smith grew up in the industrial town of Geelong on the Bellarine Peninsular of Victoria. He developed an early fascination with the flare from the oil refinery chimney; a waxing and waning beacon that is visible over vast distances and looms on the coastal skyline day and night.
Despite its underlying imagery of the petroleum industry, this new body of work is aligned with his reductive approach to the landscape and focus on pure painting yet retains the stillness, Oriental ‘sensibility’ and silkiness of surface that is distinctive of his oeuvre. It is now illegal under new anti terrorism laws to photograph oil refineries.
These are two very promising painters who show great potential.
