ABSTRACT PAINTINGS BY NOEL ALLANSON
About the artist: Noel Allanson was born in Kalgoorlie, Western Australia, in 1936. He moved to Canberra to serve for more than 30 years as an Australian diplomat with the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade. With his family, Noel spent about half his working life overseas on postings in Japan, Indonesia, Philippines, Russia, Malaysia and China. He has had informal training in water colours and sculpture but after his retirement became interested in acrylic flow painting. More recently, Noel has begun experimenting with abstracts using acrylics, metallics and texture. Noel’s work appears in a few corporate collections and his canvasses present a pleasing balance of colour and design, and textured layers of colour that create kaleidoscopic effects.
Grace and Gravity by Toby Halligan
Exhibiting 5th of December to 12th of January at Capital Wines and Kyeema Art Gallery
Exhibition Opening 5.30 to 6.30pm Friday 13th of December
Exhibition Opening by Dennis Mortimer, Bunker Arts Studio Queanbeyan
Toby Halligan grew up in Canberra and worked as a comedian and TV writer in Melbourne for twelve years before beginning his career as a visualise artist during the COVID lockdowns. He returned home to the ACT to pursue art and work in federal politics.
His artistic practice includes diverse mediums but predominantly consists of the use of improvisational gestures and gravity to create vibrant, colourful abstracts inspired by maps, landscapes, nature, music, and the human figure.
”I have both lost and gained family in the past year - Gravity and Grace is a show about the process of enduring trauma and an attempt to convey the gratitude of surviving to tell the story. It has at times been joyful in ways I never expected and more terrible than I can ever truly explain. In one way or another this show catalogues the emotions and events of a colourful and chaotic period.”
