19 November 2009 NEW WORKS is a Melbourne based artist who essentially employs a figurative based narrative language. Drawing on a heritage of Surrealism and figurative expressionism the work explores personal and broader issues. Often tinged with humour and a feeling of the absurd. The images are in one way or another a comment on the human condition. On first encounter the pictures are slightly satirical, comic or absurd, underlying this there is a deeper questioning of human nature. The artist is represented by Australian Galleries in Melbourne and Sydney with works appearing in many public and private collections in Australia and overseas. (www.theme.com.au) Geoffrey Ricardo has won the 2009 $15,000 Great Ocean Road Sculpture Award in the Lorne Sculpture Exhibition for Anno Domino, a life-size copper and stainless steel rhinoceros.

CURRENT EXHIBITIONS BY GALLERY ARTISTS
Marco Luccio – “Five Cities” 2 October to 8 November 2009, Swan Hill Regional Gallery
Steve Lopes – “Sons of Los” Opening Saturday October 24th, Stella Downer Fine Art, NSW. Inspired by a trip to the Snowy Mountains, Steve Lopes’ latest exhibition Sons of Los explores a land literally uncovered from the depths. "The drought has uncovered a town that was deliberately flooded 50 years ago as part of a massive hydro-electricity scheme," Lopes tells. "It was submerged under 30 metres of water in 1957 when the local valley was dammed to form the man-made Lake Eucumbene. It's been brought back to the surface and it's like an old city that has risen out of the mud. I was taken with the strange scenery of Lake Eucumbene, the fields of Kiandra and the ruins of ‘Old Adaminaby’."
Juli Haas – “Dream Boats” September 29 – October 17th, Flinders Lane Gallery, Melbourne, Vic
Damen Kowarski, - “Desi”, “In 2007 I spent six months living and working in Lahore, Pakistan, teaching drawing and studying miniature painting at Beaconhouse National University.

NEW WORKS AVIALABLE
Deborah Williams is a young Australian printmaker with unique imagery, whose work is becoming increasingly collectable both in Australia and overseas. Her work was featured last year at the Melbourne Art Fair with Australian Galleries and is held in most regional and state galleries as well as the National Gallery of Australia and collections in the UK, USA, Thailand, Papua New Guinea and Indonesia.
Deborah uses various techniques, including etching, engraving, roulette and angle grinder to achieve graphic textures and marks together with intense blacks that “pull” you into the details of her dogs and tempt you to run your hand over their glossy coats! Her work has attracted a large amount of interest in exhibition at Impressions on Paper Gallery during the 2007 Print Symposium at the National Gallery of Australia.
Jazmina Cininas is a well know Australian printmaker whose exhibition “The Girlie Werewolf Project” at Impressions on Paper Gallery in 2006 was one of the highlights of our exhibitions that year. It was in fact one of my favourites in all of our 62 exhibitions held over four and a half years. Her attention to detail in the amazingly layered and detailed reduction linocuts, reflect a wonderful commitment to her practice and subject matter. The response from those who visited the exhibition was amongst the most satisfying experiences in producing an exhibition to date. In the catalogue she explained
“The wolf’s history as a construct of the popular psyche more closely parallels the way women have been portrayed throughout the ages. Its classic identities as either the selfless nurturing mother (as in the Jungle Book and Romulus and Remus stories), the diabolical werewolf, and as the ravening man-eater respectively mirror the chaste wife, heretic witch and femme fatale archetypes traditionally reserved for representations of women”
Jazmina will be travelling to Europe in the next few months to give a paper (on female werewolves) at the Evil, Women and the Feminine conference in Budapest, which runs from 1-3 May 2009. Jazmina is also a noted curator and writer and her recently curated exhibition “The Enchanted Forest: New Gothic Storytellers” opens at Latrobe Regional Gallery on 21 February. This exhibition also features another of our artists – Milan Milojevic. NETS Victoria have put together a fantastic website, with images, artist interviews and an education kit. Visit the site at www.netsvictoria.org/enchanted.” Jazmina is currently undertaking a PhD at RMIT university.
