Melbourne Art Fair 2020
The two Artists to be shown by Jacob Hoerner Galleries at the Melbourne Art Fair 2020 digital edition are David Palliser and Andrew Sibley.
The recent works by Palliser selected for this presentation show his sophisticated approach to painting, considered visual language and ambiguous internal logic expressed through his multi-layered wayward abstractions.
The suite of works by Andrew Sibley are a selection of significant oil and enamel paintings on linen created between 1968-1972, an iconic early work on Masonite board from 1965, and a set of smaller paintings on Arches Dessin paper created over four years from 1978-1981. Made over an extended period during a transformative time in his career, Sibley’s imagery subtly shifts from the mid 1960s up until the early 1980s yet is clearly recognisable as his own, visual representations of each muse’s mood or state of being capturing the complexities of the human condition.

Lone Splendour by Monique Morter is a new series of work based on the spectacular mountain ranges of the South Island of New Zealand. Predominantly working with pastel on paper Morter’s approach to drawing is hyper-real, her dream like colour pop images are laden with colour, electric at times while soft and sparse at other moments. Morter creates a sensuous mood in her depictions of the vistas she is observing, a luxury of colour to calm as well as titillate the eye, and through her work she imbues new life into these timeless terrains, so strong and solid in structure yet so soft, fragile and vulnerable in this age of melting ice caps and mountain snow. More than just pictures of positivity – which they are – this latest series is also a record of beauty mixed with a fragility expressed through the sublime medium of pastel on paper.
With an exceptional understanding of colour, line and shape that has been developed and refined over his near 50 years as an artist, the symbols and patterns that David Milne places into his meticulous work combine to reflect his artistic background as a Modernist with an acute awareness and sensibility to the trends and aesthetics of Contemporary painting.
Milne’s approach is bold and striking at first glance, invariably complex and intricate upon further inspection, calming and measured when time is spent with his careful and considered hard edge abstractions, yet in essence Milne’s numinous compositions go beyond the painted surface. Part riddle and part ‘The Spiritualisation of Matter’ his coded visual language offers us access to longer arcs of time and more metaphysical notions of our sense of place via visual cues that have been used in Western and Eastern Art over centuries.
Drawing on his knowledge of alchemy, and particular interest in engravings of the Seventeenth Century, Milne’s multi-layered yet clear compositions are infused with historical iconography as well as elementary symbols. Designed around meditative inflection Milne allows us to see and engage with an artist who’s work is created for our aesthetic enjoyment without a need for excessive elaboration even though a more complicated subtext is present for those wanting to discover the rationale and musings that underpin his highly sophisticated ethereal tomes.
Milne has had significant commercial success over four decades of exhibiting with sell out exhibitions in the 1980s and 2000s either side of his successful career working in advertising for Saatchi & Saatchi as their National Creative Director in the 1990s. Creating some of his best and most important work to date, and through formal presentation and representation, Milne continues to accrue credence and recognition for his unique compositions, mark making and his approach to his artistic practice that he has been dedicated to throughout his life.
