SUMMARY:Women and Other Demons
DESCRIPTION:Maria Pia Mosquera is a Colombian-born artist based in Sydney. Rooted in the aesthetics of medieval and Latin-American colonial art\, her work wryly re-imagines the contemporary world through the lens of religious iconography\, mythology and folklore\, vestiges from a time when the power of the supernatural to intervene in our lives was taken to be self-evident. \nMaking use of oneiric imagery that challenges the macabre with whimsical humour and invites reflection on our everyday lives\, the paintings in this exhibition re-imagine depictions of women in ancient stories in order to engage with contemporary society\, which is only beginning to reckon with the misogyny that drives persistent violence against women. \nOpening night: Friday 27 September\, 6-8pm \nWomen And Other Demons Catalogue \n  \nImage credit: Maria Pia Mosquera\, Taken II\, 2023\, oil on board.

SUMMARY:Packsaddle Lecture: Jackie Dunn - Alphonse Mucha: Spirit of Art Nouveau
DESCRIPTION:For the 2024 FT Wimble Lecture on Printmaking\, join Jackie Dunn\, Senior curator of exhibitions at the Art Gallery of New South Wales and co-curator of their current Alphonse Mucha: Spirit of Art Nouveau exhibition\, to explore the life and work of one of art’s great stylistic innovators\, Alphonse Mucha (1860–1939). Through his lithographic posters and illustrations\, Mucha created some of the most instantly recognisable and best-loved works in modern European art: the seductive\, sinuous compositions that formed a new language and defined the look of late 19th-century Paris. But Mucha was also a mystic philosopher and activist for the liberation of his homeland\, today’s Czech Republic. Together we’ll take a journey through his rich career to uncover the artist behind the famous images. \nYour ticket includes a welcome glass of sparkling wine. \nJackie Dunn is Senior curator of exhibitions at the Art Gallery of New South Wales. She is co-curator of the 2024 Alphonse Mucha: Spirit of Art Nouveau exhibition. Other major exhibitions she has curated for the Art Gallery include\, in 2023\, Kandinsky\, from the collection of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum\, New York; Desmond Lazaro’s Point and Line to Plane\, and Georgiana Houghton: Invisible Friends. In 2021 she co-curated Matisse: Life & Spirit\, Masterpieces from the Centre Pompidou\, Paris\, as well as the associated gallery-wide contemporary art responses\, Matisse Alive. That year she was also facilitating curator of Franklin Sirmans’ international video exhibition\, Family: Visions of a Shared Humanity. In 2019\, her Dora Ohlfsen and the Facade Commission led to a new commission for the Art Gallery’s heritage frontage and\, in 2018\, she curated The Lady and the Unicorn\, from the Musée de Cluny\, Paris. \n  \nThe Packsaddle Lecture Series invites leading guest speakers to explore aspects of Australian and international artistic practices and history. These informative and entertaining talks provide the community with an opportunity to explore themes and ideas related to some of our key collection areas. The annual lecture series includes the Howard Hinton Lecture on art history\, the Chandler Coventry Lecture on contemporary art and the F.T. Wimble Lecture on printing history and art. \n\n \nImage: Alphonse Mucha Reverie 1898 © Mucha Trust 2024\, colour lithograph\, 72.7 x 55.2 cm.\n
