Raw Umber and Silk. Jo Darvall New paintings

A recent successful collaborative exhibition shown in Singapore and afull-page review in Asian Art News, has sparked a uniqueopportunity for Jo Darvall, an artist from Fremantle, WesternAustralia.  The exhibition was titled All that is Changing and focused on a tribute to two artists,Chinese born Singaporean Georgette Chen and Australian, Kathleen O’Connor.

In a world moving so frenetically, and in which much of our culture isconsidered to be disposable, it behoves us to revisit and honour the artistsand their bodies of work that have come before - and to not forget. Thisconcept is not surprisingly universal - and has captured the attention of keycultural icons in Beijing namely the Manet Art Museum and ZhongGuan Cun Magazine.

Invited by the Manet Art Museum in Beijing, China, Jonow has the opportunity to exhibit a selection of the large scale works shownin Singapore - and new works of art completed after her residency inSingapore. 

Large canvases and works on paper were specificallycreated by Darvall for the Beijing exhibition and reflect the beautifullandscape of the South West corner of Western Australia - described byAustralian Geographic as one of the worlds major biodiversity regions.Additional new work includes a suite of monoprints created at Darvall’s printstudio, situated in the Heathcoat Cultural Centre. A more resent collaborationbetween Darvall and one of her printmaker students, Bethwyn Porter, featuresimages of the landscape around the studio. Originally an importantsite of the Beeliar Indigenous elders, Heathcoat was considered by the Englishcolonisers as the site for the capital of Western Australia. This waseventually established further up the Swan River and named Perth in Western Australia. 

The narrative continues.

乔·达瓦尔新作展

从近期成功举办的新加坡合作展览，到亚洲艺术新闻的整版报道，对乔·达瓦尔——这位来自西澳大利亚弗里曼特尔的艺术家而言，无疑意义非凡；这场名为所有一切皆在改变的艺术展表达了作者对两位艺术家的敬意，她们分别是中国出生的新加坡籍艺术家陈荔英和和澳大利亚的艺术家凯瑟琳·奥康纳。

在这个星云变幻的世界，我们的很多文化沦为一次性消费品，我们需要重温前人的作品，向前辈艺术家致敬 – 更为了不被忘却的纪念。毋庸置疑这一理念被广为接受，也引起了北京的主要文化符号即马奈草地国际艺术中心和中关村杂志社的关注。

受中国北京马奈草地国际艺术中心的邀请，乔终于有机会带着她新加坡展的精选作品，以及在新加坡艺术家驻地后的新作登陆中国。

大幅的油画及水彩是乔·达瓦尔特地为北京画展创作的，其中部分作品反映了西澳西南角（被澳洲国家地理誉为世界上最具生物多样性的主要地区之一）的景观。届时，您将欣赏到位于西斯科特文化中心的达瓦尔版画工作室创作的单板版画。这些由达瓦尔和她的版画学生Bethwyn Porter联合创作的作品呈现了工作室周边的风景。作为贝莱亚尔长老的重要据点，这里曾被英国殖民者视为西澳的首府。最终，西澳的首府被最终定在了天鹅河畔名为珀斯的地方。
