Art Month Appoints Kate Britton As Artistic Director Of The 2018 Festival
Art Month Sydney will return in March 2018 and planning has started with the appointment…
7 NovSomeone is moving house; Chewing gum sticks to the bottom of a shoe; A fight breaks out; "Excuse me waiter, there's an eye in my soup!"; on the 9th tee, dead drunk, he made a 'hole in one'; as the smoke from her cigarette becomes a cloud drifting out over her window sill garden.
Chris Dolman’s solo exhibition Good Grief! and other Calamities, sees the artist continue on his tragicomedy search for self with a new series of paintings and ceramic objects. Taking on elements from the comic grotesque, and using slapstick and self-deprecating humour, Dolman creates absurd yet poetic narrative moments within the mundane situations of daily life. Blurring memories of real events with invented scenarios, the exhibition takes a light-hearted look at grief, anxiety and the accidents just waiting to happen to us all...Be careful not to trip on your way out.
