SPACE2 : ART LTD
Exhibition dates. 26 April - 7 May 2023
Opening Reception : Thursday 27 April 2023, 6:00 - 8.30pm
Art Ltd is made up of three friends who went to Art School together. In 1991 we held a group exhibition and used the Art LTD name.
LTD comes from Lynette, Tony and Dirk, but it was also a joke about our lack of a business acumen that seemed so valued in the Artworld of that era. We had intended to hold a thirty-year anniversary show in 2021 but the pandemic intervened.
LYNETTE YOUNG
I am a printmaker, textile artist and painter. A whole gamut of mediums appeal and I don’t settle on any one thing. A tapas or yum cha type of art practice. Love it all. My work for this exhibition began in lockdown where I discovered twitching; with Pardalotes and Welcome Swallows being my favourites and the textile bug getting me at the same time. I have an overlapping set of cyanotypes and textiles following the birding theme. Also, I have made some tiny dry point prints that show in simple lines, some historical family images.

TONY SOWERSBY
I am a painter, cartoonist, printmaker and muralist. I believe in the ineffable beauty of the everyday and that all art has a political element. Most of my art is realistic with occasional forays into Pop Art. Some of my landscapes in this exhibition are what I call ‘passenger art’. They are of the world seen from the front seat of a moving vehicle because that is how most Australians see their country.

Dirk Leembruggen
I have previously worked in the medium of printmaking and Gouache on paper before moving to digital media. My work is influenced by film, music, animation and themes explored in the Pop Surrealism movement. While there are nods to the real world there are excursions to the lightness of imagined ones.This work is created on old computers using often outdated 3D modelling and Illustration software - Retro to create Retro - the past to reimagine the future.
