SUMMARY:Of Brushes and Light
DESCRIPTION:Of Brushes and Light celebrates the evolution of Impressionism in Australia in the late nineteenth century\, and the impact the en plein air movement had on the portrayal of the Australian landscape. During this extraordinary period of change and independence\, artists discarded conservative customs and embraced the greater freedom of a more bohemian life and outlook.  Liberated from academic and formal traditions\, they created artistic communities\, camps and societies that were brimming with camaraderie\, comradeship and irreverence. Artworks created during this time form a cornerstone of art history in Australia today\, influencing the generations of artists that followed\, and were pivotal in recognizing the extraordinary quality of light\, colour and air of Australian landscape. \nThis exhibition explores iconic artworks collected by Howard Hinton from this period and draws out the extraordinary beauty of many artists less well known from this time. \nImage: Walter Withers\, On the Beach\, (c.1902)\, oil on wood\, Gift of Howard Hinton 1939\n

SUMMARY:Workshop: Stitching Signs for Future Living
DESCRIPTION:Join artist Rae Haynes at NERAM for a hands-on creative session inspired by their series Signs for Future Living on show as part of the exhibition How To Weather Together. 10 Signs for Future Living draws together 10 feminist protest slogans\, interweaving demands for climate\, gender and social justice – all fundamental to the state of future living.\n\n\nIn this workshop\, you’ll transform threads\, fabric scraps and leftover materials through embroidery\, cross-stitch and applique techniques into bold Feminist Badges and Banners\, complete with text to make your message loud and proud.

Let’s stitch\, subvert\, and celebrate feminist voices together.\n\n\nWorkshop is free but spaces are limited and bookings essential.

SUMMARY:Closing weekend of How to weather together
DESCRIPTION:Saturday 31st January from 10.30am-1pm  \nMAZDA Gallery \nSpend Saturday morning in the gallery reading\, discuss and maybe even write some poetry around the topic of weathering. As part of the closing weekend of How to weather together\, the curator Jennifer Hamilton is hosting a poetry gathering for poetry readers and writers. The general topic for the gathering is “weathering” broadly understood. Weathering can be literal\, very metaphorical or a combination of the two. \nBring a poem or two to read and discuss. You also might want to branch out to think about climate/climate change and environmental crisis. Poems can be from any time in history; authored by yourself or another. Even if the connection to weather/weathering is extremely tangential the poem is welcome. Being able to read the poem and share the connection with the theme in discussion is the purpose. \nIf we run out of things to talk about we will practice “Close Meteorology” together and generate some found poetry out of our observations. \n  \nFREE EVENT \nREGISTRATION ESSENTIAL

SUMMARY:Artist Talk: Rowen Matthews
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an in-conversation between exhibiting artist Rowen Matthews and NERAM Director Rachael Parsons as they discuss Matthews stunning exhibition Water. \nThrough his luminous and meditative paintings\, Rowen Matthews explores the distinctive landscapes of the New England highlands through the elemental theme of water. Focusing on the region’s many dams—iconic features that shape both ecology and imagination—Matthews reflects on how these bodies of water hold memory\, sustain life\, and mirror shifting skies. His work captures the delicate interplay between environment\, identity and belonging\, shaped by more than three decades of living and working in Armidale. Water is both an artistic and personal journey\, offering a contemplative view of landscape as a site of renewal\, reflection and deep connection. \n\n \nImage: Rowen Matthews\, Water (exhibition view)\, 2025.

SUMMARY:NADIGA (at the Armidale Showground)
DESCRIPTION:NADIGA means walk in Anaiwan. It is also the title of a day-long exhibition by Anaiwan artist Gabi Briggs at the Armidale Showground. The notion that walking Country is a form of knowledge-regeneration underpins three works: GEDYURA\, TENYA\, and ARKAN & IRBELA. These have only ever been shown in Melbourne on Wurundjeri Country and as such\, their journey to Armidale can be understood as a return home. This exhibition forms a key component of her PhD research. \nIn Gabi’s research\, walking and the artworks that emerge from it are inseparable. The works grow from the movement\, listening\, and remembering that happen while walking on Country. This approach is grounded in her grandmother Patsy Cohen’s book\, Ingelba and the Five Black Matriarchs (1990)\, where walking emerges as a cultural practice and research methodology. Gabi extends this lineage in her own practice– through walking\, rearticulating and continuing her nan’s work in embodied\, relational ways. \nThe Armidale showground is entwined with this history of movement. Ingelba was once positioned in relation to the broader world through the walk to the Armidale Show. Under colonial control their movement became restricted\, with authorities able to order the removal of Aboriginal people from towns. Now the Showground is being returned to Ingelba’s relational frame through the artworks\, the gathering\, and the planned walk that will culminate here. \nNADIGA forms part of a longer project – to eventually walk Country with kin\, particularly the 100km path from the former Ingelba Aboriginal Reserve to the Armidale showground. As such\, NADIGA brings family together to prepare for the journey\, to deepen a shared understanding that movement across Country is an ongoing cultural practice\, and a mode of knowledge-making that persists despite colonial interruption. \n  \nImage: Poster designed by Marilena Hewitt
