Tai Snaith returns to the studio for the fortnightly visual arts segment Art Attack, chatting about her artistic process whilst working from home, and reviewing Judy Watson and Yhonnie Scarce’s ‘Looking Glass’, on display at the TarraWarra Museum of Art. Described by curator Hetti Perkins as both “a love song and lament for country”, this exhibition sees Watson, a Waanyi artist, and Scarce, a Kokatha and Nukunu artist, explore the painful, dark history of the Australian landscape in poignant synergy. 

Jane Scott, Curator of Flesh After Fifty at the Abbotsford Convent introduces the exhibition’s program of events, challenging ageism, sexism, and body shame to celebrate and promote older women within the art world. Featuring commissions from 14 dynamic Australian artists, the exhibition includes talks from both artists and medical professionals on subjects such as menopause and family violence.

Finally, Dr Miranda Wallace, Senior Curator at the NGV announces the gallery’s winter offering, French Impressionism, featuring 79 works which have never previously been exhibited in Australia. Presented in collaboration with the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, the exhibition will chart the major developments of this artistic period through key figures such as Claude Monet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir and Edgar Degas.
