21.01.2022 Charles Conder’s Australian sojourn (1884-1890) left an enduring contribution to the development of Australian art. His success as an artist continued in both England and France, and by at least 1896, the Paris Salon was already hanging Conder’s pictures ‘on the line’. Since the 1870s, the Seine river and its tributary, the Epte, had been favourite painting spots among the Impressionists in Normandy. Monet set up his studio in Giverny just a few kilometres from the banks of t...he Epte, and in the early-1890s he further stamped its significance into the collective imagination when he produced the iconic Poplar series of paintings. ‘Monet’, notes Ann Galbally, ‘was the most important influence on Conder’s landscapes from 1892 to 1894.’ In this beautiful picture, Conder borrows one of the favourite leitmotifs used by Corot and the Barbizon School: the silhouette of a lone anonymous figure, toiling by a river, under moody crepuscular light. What first appears to be a dark foreboding setting, emerges as a careful arrangement of striking colours and masterly paintwork. --- With exceptional provenance and exhibition history, we’re pleased to present 'Scene on the Epte' as part of our upcoming Australian & International Art sale on April 18.

14.01.2022 EXHIBITION OPENING TONIGHT | Allen Hicks | Wet & Dry Opening Thursday 22 April, 6-8pm... On View Friday 23 April - Sunday 2 May, 10am - 4pm Moon Pool Series In the Moon Pool Series, Hicks has built a calm sense of contemplative forms. These landscapes provide places of seclusion and gentle ambience and intertwine natural elements: moonlit waterfalls, trees and stepping-stones suggest an intimate mystery. Hicks has spent extended periods living in a temple in Kyoto, Japan, and the influence of this period and meditative reflections are evidentin this body of work through the references to the tradition of Japanese woodblock prints,his treatment of surface and the subtle tonality of paint. Ghosts of Warming Series Hicks’s concern for the natural landscape is a result of having years of experience working for ANZSES and other contingencies managing various research expeditions to outback remote desert regions of Australia. This involvement in the bush has developed into a concern for the plight of Australia’s drying inland regions.Acidic lagoons and salt encrusted surfaces reflected in his artworks remind us of the fragility of our natural landscape and the effect of increased global warming. These works evoke a presence of caution, of landforms struggling with deterioration and yet are fascinating in their aesthetic appeal.
