#MACcontemporary: The artistic career of Syrian-Am

#MACcontemporary: The artistic career of Syrian-American painter (also a poet and essayist) Etel Adnan (born 1925) didn’t take off until her eighties, and now she is a big inspiration to young artists.

Her landscapes are colourful and childlike, persistent in their pursuit of peace despite whatever violence dominates the news. What kept her going? She says: “I always had a few people who liked what I did, and that was enough.”

Born from a desire to help motivate beginner and experienced artists alike to keep creating during lockdowns, we bring you our new initiative to help inspire and educate.

A new project will be posted on our website each week or you can choose to sign up to receive the project straight to your inbox.

Just for fun, or to be taken more seriously if you like, we hope the content inspires you to create.

#MAChistorical: The Neolithic archaeological site

#MAChistorical: The Neolithic archaeological site of Göbekli Tepe (founded around 9000 BC) in present-day Turkey provides important information regarding the development of human society.

It is generally believed that human beings got settled after the adoption of farming. But what if there was another narrative? Did a shift in our consciousness (and not material circumstance) lead to civilisation?

Interestingly, the pre-agriculture hunter-gatherer community at Göbekli Tepe seems to have had a complex religious system with art of its own. As excavator Klaus Schmidt (1953-2014), who worked on the site, put it: “First came the temple, then the city”.

Join us for a 1.5 hour drawing workshop this Saturday morning, bring your family together for a fun, educational and rewarding drawing experience.

These shorter online workshops have been well received and are a great "de-stresser" for participants.

Taught by Marco Corsini, founder and Director of @melbourneartclass, the workshops are simple accessible exercises in observational drawing originating from Marco's extensive experience of teaching drawing.

#MACcontemporary: American artist Mernet Larsen (b

#MACcontemporary: American artist Mernet Larsen (born 1940) is known for her "narrative paintings depicting hard-edged, enigmatic characters that inhabit an uncanny parallel world filled with tension and wry humour".

Her inspirations include the non-objective geometries of Russian Constructivism, Bunraku puppet theatre (from Japan) and Indian miniatures. She plays with space and perspective, giving us a feeling of vertigo. Interestingly, through her solid characters, she aims to portray stopped time and offer a sense of permanence, weight and solidarity.

These four paintings are “Astronauts: Sunset”, “Solar System Explained”, “Cabinet Meeting” and “Misstep”.

#MAChistorical: Known as “the chief relic of the Western world”, the Book of Kells is an illuminated manuscript of the four gospels in Latin. It is named after the Abbey of Kells—a town in mid-east Ireland, but was created in a Columban monastery on a Scottish island.

The lavish script of the manuscript, called “insular majuscule”, is thought to be the work of at least three scribes/artists. The monks, it is possible, battled storm and rain and took refuge in Kells after being threatened by the Vikings. The Book is now housed at Trinity College Dublin Library.

These images show Chi-Ro (symbol for Christ), the four evangelists (Matthew as man, Mark as lion, Luke as ox and John as eagle), Christ enthroned and design details.

(Last two images shown in 2 parts).
