18.01.2022 Too Many Cooks artist Rew Hanks (b. 1958) is a Sydney-based printmaker whose intricate linocuts combine historic imagery, wit and contemporary references; promp...ting critique of Australia’s cultural identity - colonialism, politics and the environment. His precise, detailed works continue a long history of printmaking as political commentary and social satire. For over 30 years Hanks has exhibited both nationally and internationally and has been awarded many prizes - most recently the Megalo International Print Prize in 2020. His works are held in the Australian National Gallery, most state and regional galleries throughout Australia, and fourteen international galleries. Have a look at the 360-degree virtual gallery tour and curatorial floor talk, and 3D interactive visualisations of exquisite cultural objects. Image credit: Rew Hanks.

17.01.2022 Too Many Cooks artist Julie Gough is a Trawlwoolway (Tasmanian Aboriginal) artist, writer and curator of Indigenous Cultures at the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gal...lery. Her Briggs-Johnson family have lived in the Latrobe region of North West Tasmania since the 1840s, with Tebrikunna their Traditional Country in far north eastern Lutruwita (Tasmania). Gough’s art and research practice often involves uncovering and re-presenting conflicting and subsumed histories, many referring to her family’s experiences as Tasmanian Aboriginal people.

06.01.2022 Too Many Cooks artist Tom Nicholson lives and works in Melbourne. His work often gravitates around processes of drawing, the persistence of images, and the dema...nds of histories upon the present. Tom Nicholson (‘Interview’ 2016) explores Webber’s enigmatic scene by revisiting the place of Cook’s landing on Bruny Island to locate the exact viewpoint of the drawing. Nicholson reproduced the drawing in its original dimensions and accompanied it with text of his own interview with the author on the reverse, exploring the nuance of an Aboriginal lifeworld of middens and landscape across time alongside the possibilities of Webber’s artistic project. Nicholson’s ‘Interview’ takes the form of a sculptural work, with folded sets of the drawing and text arranged in what might suggest a pedestal for a monumental Cook that is absent from the gallery.

Congratulations Kwony (Youngkyoung Kwon) & Amalea Smolcic, the recipients of the Rotary Club of Hobart Emerging Artist award.... In August 2021 the Rotary Club of Hobart will be holding its 32nd Annual Art Show. A week-end event held at Wrest Point Boardwalk gallery where around 100 artists show 300+ works. Our Show’s aims are to raise public awareness of Rotary, provide fellowship and community engagement, give local artists the opportunity to display and sell their works, and to raise funds to support Hobart Rotary’s charitable work. A part of the show, a number of awards are made to artists. One of these is the ‘Emerging Artist’ award, presented to a UTAS Art student selected by our committee from the prior year’s third year graduates. The prize consists of the opportunity to display work at no cost (and sell if desired) at the show, plus $500 worth of art supplies, donated by our major sponsor, Artery.
