TWO EXHIBITIONS

Neil Taylor

Towards A New Direction

3rd - 29th September 2005

Parallels, Acrylic on Canvas, 114 x 122cm

Landscape dominates the stimulus for Australian artists and is Neil Taylor's traditional oeuvre.  This exhibition sees Neil take a new direction by choosing to poetically depict the landscape without defining its place or time.  Instead he paints an ambient interpretation of the landscape giving only suggestions of place.  Structured, spacious and influenced by reflections, Neil's new work is a dichotomy of realistic images and surrealistic atmosphere.

3rd - 29th September 2005

Windless, Oil on Canvas, 101 x 150cm

In these recent paintings, Arrisueno has explored the interplay of realism and surrealism. Unexpected things in everyday life: domestic situations and the things which surprise us such as absurdities. He has an understanding of the beauty and magic of everyday and how they can be enhances into something greater than the mind can easily grasp.
