Alex Hamilton
How far is it if you only think it

Officially Opening 6-8pm Thursday November 21 2024
November 20 – December 15 2024

In his latest series How far is it if you only think it Alex Hamilton creates works that pose questions & at times syntactic answers in relation to the Age we are living through & the predicaments our complicated & turbulent World seems to throw at us with unrelenting force. While delving deeply into Contemporary themes & ideas Hamilton is not limited to this epoch and draws on past Decades & Centuries of Music, Art, Literature & Philosophy to create Contemporary Paintings that are aesthetically sumptuous, intellectually alluring & conceptually rewarding on a myriad of levels. Through his use of a swathe of materials including inks, paints, pens, Perspex, photocopied papers, scratching & interventions we are presented with works of Art that are complex reflections of our time & that are timeless simultaneously.

Hamilton is an Australian Artist of International repute with works in Major Collections including the National Gallery of Australia, Art Gallery of South Australia, Saatchi Collection, Victoria & Albert Museum, Tate Library, Baltimore Museum of Modern Art & Denver Museum of Modern Art as well as having shown in some of the most significant Art Fairs of the World including Art Basel, TEFAF, Art Rotterdam, Drawing Now Paris, Art Chicago, Sydney Contemporary & Spring 1883.

Following on from their stand out collaboration at Sydney Contemporary in September this year Jacob Hoerner Galleries & MAGMA Galleries again co-present this New Series of Perspex Paintings in How far is it if you only think it (2024) at 5 Bedford St Collingwood from November 20 – December 15 2024.

CENTRAL HIGHLANDS

October 25 – December 7 2024

Michael Portley moved to Melbourne from Brisbane in 1998 after completing his Bachelor of Visual Arts at Queensland University of Technology in 1991. During his time as a student Portley was taught by the esteemed Queensland artist William Robinson, this tuition and guidance can still be seen in his work when his artistic focus is the depiction of the Australian landscape in a more formal sense.

This New Series of sublime oil on canvas paintings focus on capturing the light and colours of the landscape of the Hepburn Shire Central Highlands.

Andrew Sibley
BERLIN (1973-1975)

Official Opening 6-8pm Thursday February 15 2024
February 15 – March 30 2024

Melbourne Art Week
Special Opening 6-8pm Saturday February 24 2024

The selection of works on exhibition as a part of BERLIN (1973-1975) are Enamel & Oil on Paper on Board paintings created between 1973-1975 directly after the Sibley returned from a Residency in Berlin in 1972. Indicative of Sibley’s avant-garde approach to art making during this period they are all rare and iconic works.

Most significantly and most directly influenced by artists such as Beckman, Dubuffet, Klee, Bacon and the like, Sibley’s affinity with German and European Art was based on more than just his exhibiting there, the impact of his connection to Europe – and understanding of the ideas that were explored by the major artists of the 20th century he followed and those that he was a contemporary of – remained a key part of on his work throughout illustrious career.

Berlin runs February 15 – March 30 2024
