Vast: North-West landscapes

Vast: North-West landscapes
Art Gallery of Western Australia
26 October 2011 – 18 March 2012
The opening up of northern Western Australia to mining exploration in the 1960s also opened up this terrain to artists – both literally by providing easier ways to access it physically by car and air, and imaginatively as a ‘new world’ to discover. Australian artists Russell Drysdale, Guy Grey-Smith, Robert Juniper, Sidney Nolan and many others travelled through the area at this time, and their practice often changed significantly as a result.

Ignacio Burgos at Moscow Museum of Modern Art

Ignacio Burgos – Retrospectiva 1993-2011
Moscow Museum of Modern Art
November 9 – December 14, 2011
Moscow Museum of Modern Art continues the program of the Year of Spain in Russia with the solo exhibition of Ignacio Burgos, one of the most interesting contemporary artists in his country. His art is recognizable and self-contained; for long years, the master is faithful to his style and does not surrender to the dictation of markets, galleries, and curators. His manner can be defined as ‘figurative expressionism’: in his canvases, the exquisite palette of blues, purples and ochres comes into balance with a special Mediterranean light, and soft but precise brushwork.

Bruce Katsiff and Thomas Shillea: Masters of the Platinum Print
Monsoon Gallery
November 4 – November 30
In the early days of photography, the platinum print was everywhere. Photographers in the 19th century created platinotypes, as did early 20th century masters such as Alfred Stieglitz, who prized the printing method for its velvety tones and unrivaled beauty. However platinum printing eventually gave way to less expensive, but sadly less beautiful methods.
