Joel Lambeth Exhibition 16th January


JOEL LAMBETH
EXHIBITION 16th January ~ 6th February


Joels' artwork was so popular in the last group exhibition at Yindela, we gave him the whole cafe to fill for this exhibition.
He comes to us hot off from Paste Modernism Exhibition at the hugely successful Outpost Project street art festival at Cockatoo Island late last year.
Personally I adore collage, but his work is in a complete class of it's own and really is a must see experience.



To read and see more of Joel's work go to www.joellambeth.com
but DO come to Yindela to check it out!
2 Yindela Street, Davidson

about
When he was a child, the first words that Joel Lambeth ever spoke were Mum, Dad, and then Coke. The images that have been produced in film, television, magazines and other forms of advertising mass media in the later part of the 20th century are not only his artistic tradition, but also his cultural heritage.
His collage works sample images from the maelstrom of popular culture, remixing them and recontextualising them in order to infuse them with personal meaning and describe intimate narratives.
He has taken this bombardment of advertising ballyhoo and blended it with inspiration derived from the photomontage of Russian Constructivism and German Dada, to create work that is on one hand an autobiographical chronicle of his experiences, but that also serves as social commentary and cultural observation.

CADE TURNER

ARTISTS STATEMENT

I have always been fascinated with discovering the mystery contained within the raw elements of a scene its light, colour and movement. I am particularly inspired by the Great Impressionists for their sense of visual freedom, breaking traditional techniques and conventions which enabled them to capture impressions of light, colour and movement that had never been seen before.

I love challenging traditional photography and continually blurring the line between what we consider to be art, and what is considered photography. I enjoy breaking the rules, using the camera freely as my paintbrush to paint my works with light.

On location, I search for first impressions that catch my eye and work with the raw elements to develop my story. Sometimes this involves only slight alterations to what the eye naturally sees. Sometimes it involves completely decontextualising the original scene, and working with specific elements to break through into a completely new visual dimension.

OPENING NIGHT TONIGHT

"Annemarie Whiley" 28th July - 11th August
OPENING NIGHT THURSDAY 28th AUGUST 7 - 9pm
Opening nights in the warm, friendly Yindela, in the heart of the Forest are wonderful! I'm working with so many talented local artists at present with amazing artworks and visions. What excites me is unearthing these gems and getting their work 'out there'
Annemaire Whiley opens her very first solo exhibition after being a popular artist in the current "Local Birds" group show at Yindela. "Annemarie Whiley" 28th July - 11th August
I hope you enjoy this display of my paintings. This is the first public display of my art and I’m very happy to be able to share it with you.

I love the opportunity that art gives me for self expression. I studied art in high school and have since also enjoyed studying photography and musical theatre. My style has developed especially over the last 5 years since being able to be at home with my two young children. Painting with acrylics on canvas is my main medium while I also experiment with pastels on paper and I have always sketched with pen and pencil as well.

In my paintings I aim to achieve a true realisation of what I have absorbed around me. I like to express this as freely as I can by using a mixture of brush and finger painting techniques.

Living on the edge of Garigal National Park with my husband and two young sons has greatly inspired my painting. I have the amazing energy of my family and the beautiful surroundings of native birds, trees and magical sunsets.

I also enjoy painting personal artworks for people for their homes, as I have for some of my friends and their children. It is one of my favourite gifts to give.
