The glorious Sydney weather has still not emerged from its winter slumber, so what better way to escape the weekend rain than at Luminous, an exhibition by Western Australia artist Chris Bellamy. The solo show at Sydney’s Iain Dawson Gallery includes a large handful of oil-on-canvas works, each taking the Australian landscape as its inspiration. The collection of gently illuminated trees is the perfect respite to the city this weekend. » Click here to download PDF

When Australian - Filipino artist Mike Chavez moved to The Philippines two years ago, he was confronted by the bloodsport of cockfighting. "I knew it was part of the culture but I didn't know it was so pervasive," says Chavez whose new exhibition, 'Live Fast Die Young,' opens at Iain Dawson Gallery in Paddington on March 8 as part of Art Month Sydney. » Click here to download PDF

HUGH FORD
SMH | METRO
Author Andrew Frost Friday February 11 2011
His jokes are obvious but Hugh Ford's work itself is subtle, writes Andrew Frost.
Successful humour in art is hard to achieve. Flippancy can undervalue the seriousness of an artist's intention, while appearing too straight-faced or being pretentiously obscure will alienate your audience.
Painter Hugh Ford manages the delicate balance between a good gag and serious art in his latest show with Iain Dawson Gallery.
Ford's work has the schematic simplicity of vintage line drawings, the sorts of images found in old encyclopaedias or how-to manuals that, out of context, seem bizarre and comic. Paintings such as A Real F---king Big Sandwich and Vintage Underwater Enthusiasts - Helsinki Chapter have the initial impact of a good joke but take on a weird and uncanny strangeness as one gazes upon them.
