25.01.2022 18th May 1940 to 28th April 2019. "A life lived abundantly, creatively, lovingly. An acclaimed artist and sculptor. A true friend. Funny, very clever, great mind, mischievous, honourable and a great story teller." - Robyn Berkeley Sculptor Michael Kitching was born in 1940 in Hull, England, UK, moving to Australia in 1952. Growing up in England, he often visited galleries and museums with his father, James Digby Percival Kitching, a military trained engineer and builder who was responsible for building two major oil refineries in the UK during WW11. It was through his father’s creative influence that Kitching’s love of art was founded, teaching him also how to work, construct and create with his hands.

20.01.2022 The AWA Advancing Women Artists are launching an exciting project with the Uffizi Galleries and the Medici Archive Project. It's called the Garzoni Challenge. In anticipation of the Uffizi's upcoming show on seventeenth-century artist Giovanna Garzoni, the AWA are inviting artists from all over the world to create original artworks inspired by the artist. It is a conversation not a contest. There is no cost to participate. They are looking to create a connection between femal...e greats of the past and artists today. Artists receive name recognition. http://advancingwomenartists.org//sp/the-garzoni-challenge Giovanna Garzoni (16001670) was an Italian painter who was prominent in Europe during the Baroque period. Garzoni started her career painting religious, mythological, and allegorical subjects but became famous for her works with tempera and watercolors of botanical subjects. See more
