William Blake: Apprentice and Master

This major exhibition focuses on the extraordinary life and work of William Blake (1757–1827), printmaker, painter and revolutionary poet of the prophetic books.

Colin Smith: Obscure Inversions
at Art Gallery of Alberta
Edmonton, AB, Canada
Dec 06, 14 - Mar 01, 15

Based on his experiences working as a trained lighting technician and cinematographer in the film industry, Calgary-based photographer Colin Smith has developed a visual arts practice investigating the most simple lens-based technologies. This exhibition will present a series of high definition, large format images of found and constructed camera obscuras in abandoned and archetypal sets such as decaying prairie farmhouses, hotels and lookout shelters. When basic projection techniques are combined with light, inverted and unconcealed – even banal settings become magical. read more...

Anni Leppälä: The Book of Images
at Galerie les Filles du Calvaire
3e - Paris, France
Dec 04, 14 - Jan 17, 15

The connections between the images are essential to my work. How the images affect each other and what kind of relations they create between each other. I try to trace this emerging “third image” between two or several images; the various combinations of images compose different interpretations; it is like an uncovering of new thoughts. My works do not consist of separate series, but the recent images expand the already existing entity of works. read more...

Shohei Fujita: Nishiki
at Tomio Koyama Gallery
Koto-ku - Tokyo, Japan
Dec 03, 14 - Dec 15, 14

This exhibition by Shohei Fujita is entitled “Nishiki”, referring to “brocade” in the Japanese language. As brocade does, Fujita’s ceramics embrace rich colors and scrupulous delicacy. They consist of two major techniques. In one of the techniques the pieces are formed with a frosted glass-like touch, as if the paints drop into water, spread and dissolve. They are in soothing colors and mottled patterns, and are made through a unique method that requires taking a long time to shave off the multi-layered glaze. read more...

at The Ian Potter Centre: NGV Australia
Melbourne, Australia
Dec 06, 14 - Feb 22, 15

Our country’s most irreverent brand - Mambo - has turned 30 years old. With its idiosyncratic Australian sense of humour and perverse national pride, Mambo has seemingly grown up. Mambo: 30 years of shelf-indulgence presents all the ideas, key elements and oddities that have made it one of Australia's most memorable brands. The exhibition sees NGV Studio housing the largest collection of Mambo works ever assembled, ranging from way back in 1984 to the present day, including original artworks, developmental works (some never seen before) and a retrospective of the most-loved pieces produced during its history. read more...
