Artist Highlight - Liz McKay

Sydney-based artist Liz McKay, 34, is known for her groovy paintings which explore the mood & relationships of people in intimate surroundings such as European bars & cafes. "The figures in my works convey intriguing expressions and the interaction between the painted figures invite the viewer to explore the unwritten thoughts & feelings between them & how they can express wider truth about ourselves" said the artist.


Featured Works
Takuma Tanaka's paintings bring viewers into his world - one that is imaginary and happy. His landscapes are a celebration of life. Bathed in layers of oil colours in vivid blues, yellows and greens, his works are simple and embracing, Takuma's lively brushworks are delivered with unabashed liberation and a sense of play. His subjects adorned a simplicity of form, reduced to their essentials with colours penetrating one another

Featured Artist
Waldemar Kolbusz
At an exhibition of the 'New York School' painters (Motherwell, Rothko, Klein) in Tokyo and a visit to the Rothko room at the Tate. Kolbusz explains " I remember being drawn into the images and being almost aghast at how immensely powerful they were. I was dizzy. They confirmed my suspicions that the sort of painting I was interested in doing contained expression and feeling over exactness and formula." - Kolbusz works are available for viewing at Momentous Arts.

Rene Robles


In the 1950's there was abstract expressionism. In the 1960's there was pop art, and from 1970 to the present, a steadfastly growing diversity in art has developed. What all these developments have in common is that they reflect developments in their societies. Art is not static, it continually seeks a new way of visual expression. In the 1950's and 60's artists followed particular stylistic disciplines and their results were distinct. In the last three decades, however, diversity destroyed every form of discipline. Artists use recycled materials and can go back and forth in time from the ancient period to the present for their subject mode which can mutate or combine with others, resulting in a different art form.

Pete Jimenez - The Entertainery

He sees the potential of found objects (iron in this case), pick the pieces that he likes, bring them back where he hammer and weld them in his garage. Filipino sculptor Pete Jimenez would reconfigured the metals with humor and imagination, smacked with eccentricity.

Paintings by Dragica Milunovic


Dragica Milunovic

It's quite exciting when you're knocked out by the visual impact of a painting. That's just the kind of effect we've come to expect from Dragica Milunovic's work and she certainly doesn't let us down in this exhibition. Here she offers a collection of fourteen works, ranging in size from 150 cm square to 5 cm square, each composed of cross-hatched lines made by the point of a small brush dipped in tints and tones of a single colour.
