New Ground

"Legged Vessel" by Hermie Corneliesse

Precinct Galleries is proud to introduce New Ground: a very interesting body of work by Hermie Cornelisse.

Well known and highly regarded in Tasmania, Hermie is hitting the mainland with ceramics that are strong, desireable and bound to be influential. For the first time, she is exhibiting her paintings and her embroidery along with her ceramics. This is a special treat allowing us, the viewers, to see more of her ongoing dialogue with pattern and surface decoration.

"mediterranean" An exhibition of Paintings by Suzanne Chick
November 25 to December 10, 2000

 
   
black top textured hollow in Huon Pine by Brad Moss

Suzanne Chick is the relinquished daughter of famous Kiama-born author and essayist Charmian Clift. In 1994 Suzanne wrote Searching For Charmian which detailed her search for her mother. "Mediterranean" grew out of a year she spent with her husband Doug in Europe in 1994-1995, especially time in Greece trying to find the faint traces left by Charmian Clift and George Johnston during the decade they spent there from 1954 to 1964.

My Misspent Youth: An exhibition of Oil Paintings by Bob Dixon
January 2000 (ends 2nd February) 

 
   
black top textured hollow in Huon Pine by Brad Moss

My Misspent Youth by Bob Dixon As was the custom of teenagers of the time, my friend Jeff and I took off from Queensland in 1966 aged 17 to Melbourne where we lived a precarious life taking whatever work we could get to survive. This series documents the years 66/67 and focusses on the people who influenced our lives at the time, positive and negative. Most of the works concern the period of time that we worked as deckhands on the Ivy Maree, a rundown scallop boat, plying the scallop beds in south western Port Phillip Bay.
