An artist’s rise –

The rate of career success for a practising artist can often be considerably low given how fiercely competitive the art world can be. A significant factor in the measure of an artist’s overall success can be timing. When a successful artist ‘hits their stride’ could historically differ depending on their location, gender, practice, and the time in which their career was forged. Clarice Beckett, for example, was practicing largely in the 1920s and 1930s in Melbourne, Australia. Unlike many of her peers, her career did not expand interstate or overseas due to her inability to travel, mostly due to her unmarried status and position as a woman, as well as her parental responsibilities. Her career predominantly existed within the surrounds of Beaumaris. Roughly 40 years after her death, a remarkable discovery by Rosalind Hollinrake projected the career of this important woman artist back into the spotlight. Unfortunately, Clarice was no longer around to enjoy the spoils but her position as one of Australia’s most significant women artists remains strong to this day. By stark contrast, the artist Jordy Kerwick has been in the rare position to see a swift and significant rise in his market in the last few years alone. Existing in a time of social media where images and information can be shared globally within seconds, his work has now attracted international attention (in all the right places) and seen his works increase in value at a level that is truly mind-boggling. Works that were once selling in 2017 for just over $1,000AUD are now attracting figures closer to $100,000AUD and beyond. Even better, Jordy is around to enjoy his success and all within the first 10 years of his professional art career. Australian artists William Robinson and Tim Storrier both enjoyed mid-career success. Born in the 1930s and 40s respectively, both artists have enjoyed a similar career trajectory. Their first solo shows were when they were in their early thirties, and they have each gone on to enjoy consistent career growth with art prizes, retrospectives, and commercial success under their belts. With both artists still actively practicing and exhibiting, the opportunities for their careers are still limitless. — Olivia Fuller | Head of Art

Albert Namatjira

The artworks of Albert Namatjira express his relationship with his country through the delicate medium of watercolour. Ghost gums with glowing white trunks, gorges and mountain ranges are all the classic subjects of the Hermannsburg school and Albert was the artist who mastered the European style of watercolour painting whilst maintaining the sacred stories of his culture. Artists and friends, Rex Battarbee and John Gardner first visited the Hermannsburg Mission in 1932, but it was not until their second visit in December 1934 that they would first meet Albert. Across several visits, Namatjira showed Battarbee sacred areas of the land and in return Battarbee taught Namatjira the medium of watercolour with his natural talents quickly showing through. Albert would paint sitting cross-legged

on the ground, supporting the back of the board with his left hand while painting with his right. Battarbee remarked that “…within a fortnight [Albert] had advanced to watercolours and completed his first painting on his own, and then I realised that this man had arrived in the art world”.1 Central Australian Landscape is a superior example of Albert Namatjira’s archetypal representation of the Australian landscape. The ghost gum is a symbol of the Australian bush, powerfully withstanding the harsh conditions of the outback with its brilliant white bark starkly contrasting against the burnt reds of the landscape. Namatjira frequently includes the ghost gum in his compositions to highlight the beauty and strength of the Australian bush. Albert’s talents in art extended beyond his skill with the brush. As Philip Jones comments, “in a society undergoing trauma, in which the traditional power of the old men was being eroded and supplanted by a complex set of new values, Namatjira’s actions had a deeper resonance. By mastering the art of landscape painting he was [able] to take a European cultural item and, in a subversive sense, make it his own”.2 The Hermannsburg School, as they are commonly known, consists of a number of revered artists all painting in watercolours. With Albert Namatjira (Senior) considered the leader of this group, his watercolours have become a symbol of Australian art and

Clarice Beckett

Before adopting Tonalism, Beckett graduated from the National Gallery School, studying under L. Bernard Hall and Frederick McCubbin in 1916. After leaving the school, she continued her studies with Max Meldrum, becoming involved with A.M.E. Bale, Colin Colahan, Percy Leason and Alma Figuerola. Unlike many of her other female counterparts who travelled abroad to further her studies in Europe, she chose to remain in Melbourne, unmarried and her parents’ primary caregiver. In 1919 Beckett’s family moved to Beaumaris where she lived and worked without a studio1. Despite not having a physical studio, Beckett made the outdoors her space

15 CLARICE BECKETT (1887-1935) Beaumaris Seascape c.1928 oil on board 18 × 22cm PROVENANCE: The Collection of Brian Mangan, Victoria cat. no. 270 The Collection of Rosalind Hollinrake, Victoria c.1980s Private collection, Victoria, acquired from the above $35,000 – 45,000

with the opportune moments she had, painting en plein air. While prioritising her home duties, Beckett’s painting time was limited to the early hours of the morning and evenings. This work, Beaumaris Seascape c.1928 captures Beckett’s extraordinary skill with light and texture. Drawing out the warm tones from the Beaumaris coastline, Beckett effortlessly creates a complex pallete of creamy yellows, pale greens and crisp blues. This particular aspect invites the viewer to look through the scene while catching wisps of colour and movement, suggesting a warm breezy day. The little time Beckett had to paint was cherished and did not arrest her development as an artist. Honing pace and consistency, Clarice managed a large output of works over a small period of time, exhibiting regularly with the Society of Twenty Melbourne Painters and the Melbourne Society of Women Painters and Sculptors. Clarice Beckett was perhaps the most important yet underappreciated woman artist during the 1920s and 1930s in Australia. Capturing Melbourne’s landscape and its most atmospheric nuances, Beckett’s works appear effortless, bringing a sincere and truthful representation of nature before her. Only since her rediscovery in the 1970s by Rosalind Hollinrake has she now been formally recognised and celebrated as one of the most important female artists and Tonalist innovators to capture Melbourne at a time of growth, making her an invaluable part of Australian art history.

Charles Blackman

Charles Blackman was one of the most recognised Australian figurative artists of the 20th century. His works revolved around narrative, often in series and based on ideas absorbed through music, literature, and his own experiences. In 1959, Blackman along with seven of his artistic counterparts dedicated themselves to the Antipodean manifesto in support of figuration. Twelve months later, he received the Helena Rubenstein Travelling Scholarship and moved to London for six years with Barbara. From London, they were able to travel throughout Europe where Charles explored a new and heightened style of figuration. His paintings produced during these London years are more contained, with the emotional intent imbued through darkened palettes and a deeper symbolism. Not long after settling in London, Charles and Barbara took a trip to Italy where he was able to sight the works of De Chirico in person – an artist who had profoundly influenced the isolating architecture of his ‘Schoolgirls’ series. During their time in Italy, they visited the small Tuscan city of Siena. “Charles and I went together to Siena for our first time early in 1962 in winter. It was a wonderful experience, that extraordinary cathedral in its licorice allsort marble, its sense of elevation in earthly and heavenly sense, the great square at Siena, the small and powerful Duccio museum and everywhere the guitar music of Sigovia seeming to hover in the air. The angel and the new born seem somehow to appropriate Charles’ memory image of our moment there.” (Letter from Barbara Blackman to St. Vincent’s Art Curator, dated 30 August 1995)

The Duomo di Siena has an exterior and interior constructed of white and black marble in alternating stripes in a Gothic style. Black and white are the symbolic colours of Siena tracing back to the city’s founders, Senius and Aschius, who rode black and white horses when fleeing Rome. Charles’ adaptation of the stripes in this painting bring us to the unmistakable location of Siena. In true Blackman fashion, we begin to dissect the symbolic clues that Charles selects for this work – the baby, the angel, and floating ghost-like figures, all with eyes closed and surrounding the formality of the Duomo. Barbara herself has an interesting interpretation of Charles’ deeper meaning to this work: “[the Duomo] contained the statue, dated about 1400, of ‘a woman Pope’ captioned as ‘Johannes VIII Femina ex Anglia’ translating as ‘John 8 – Woman form England’. The story is that she was a brilliant scholar who posed as a man and was elected pope. Her real identity was only discovered when she gave birth to a child in a narrow street near the church of San Clemente, close to the Colosseum in modern Rome, while riding in procession from St. Peters to the Lateran Palace.” (Letter from Barbara Blackman to St. Vincent’s Art Curator, dated 2 October 1995) In the late 14th Century, a long series of busts of past Popes was made for the Duomo di Siena, which included one of a female pope, now more commonly known as Pope Joan. In 1601, Pope Clement VIII declared the legend of the female pope to be untrue and the bust was either destroyed or recarved. Perhaps her invisibility within the male dominated space of papal authority combined with her inherent power and femininity inspired Charles and drew parallels to his beloved Barbara, now experiencing the full effects of her blindness. Through Barbara, Charles developed a richer understanding of literature and found that he absorbed imagery more deeply through the written word. Blackman’s paintings are commanding yet also deeply imbued with poetic sensibility. The narratives he ingrains within each brushstroke not only relay his rejection of abstraction but also the narrative of the human condition. Olivia Fuller | Head of Art

Jordy Kerwick Melbourne born Jordan “Jordy” Kerwick has rapidly gained international attention for his striking and bold approach to colour and pattern, producing highly intense imagery on the canvas. Interior scenes, teeth-baring animals and mythical creatures are paired with patterned rugs, wild wallpaper, lyrics, and even cigarettes, creating a unique fairy-tale narrative. Jordy Kerwick quickly found his calling as an artist after experimenting with painting garden pots in his Melbourne courtyard in 2016. With his first solo show held in Melbourne at Lindberg Galleries, the still life scene quickly became his trademark subject. Using sand as a key ingredient to his primer, Kerwick achieves a gritty, thick impasto which serves as the base to his skeletal-like flowers, often bursting out of quirky patterned pots. His ability to take what seems so universally domestic and innocent and strip the beauty back to a raw aesthetic is what has developed Kerwick’s vast fan base. His more recent works look at predatory animals, specifically tigers, alongside domestic objects to create a vibrant, expressionist and playful composition. Since starting his own family, Kerwick touched on themes surrounding memory, nostalgia and retaining his youth, forming the basis of his recent body of work. Crediting his family as his key inspiration and motivator, he often expresses his newfound joys as a parent in interviews. While it is his family that inspires his integrity as an artist, Kerwick’s visual inspirations are vast. Contemporary counterparts such as Andrew Salgado, Adam Lee, Rhys Lee and Wolfgang Vogel have all had a profound impact on Kerwick’s works, using similar colour vibrancy, layered imagery, mark making and use of lyrics, these characteristics can be seen across his practice and now credited as a defining characteristic in his oeuvre. Jordy Kerwick’s paintings are now seen in major galleries and auction houses spanning across New York, Berlin and London. Kerwick’s rise was cemented on the secondary market when his oil on paper work of a lion attacking a two-headed beast sold for €17,000 at Sotheby’s in London. As a measure of his expanding market, this record only lasted a day, with Phillips auctioning a still life piece Cool Cats 2019 selling for €82,353 before their New York outpost offered Le Tigre achieving a staggering US$220,000. To see a self-taught artist rise with such market vigour in a short period of time is a rare occurrence in today’s market where talent and competition is fierce. Leonard Joel is honoured to be the first Australian auction house to present a work by Jordy Kerwick for major public auction. Lucy Foster | Art Specialist

David Larwill As a deeply intuitive artist, David Larwill has drawn on an array of cultural influences including Indigenous art, environmental issues and politics with the style of international artists Jean-Michel Basquiat and Pablo Picasso influencing his form. His spontaneity in execution and the fleeting qualities of form and movement were highly praised over the course of his career, making him one of the most recognisable Australian artists. The iconic imagery that Larwill is most known had not fully formed until after visiting New York for the first time in 1992. He found himself completely mesmerised by the volume of colourful tags and graffiti in the subways and on the streets, much like that of Jean-Michel Basquiat and Keith Haring who were highly active during this period. Absorbing what he could from the art galleries the city had to offer, it was Picasso’s mask-like faces and strong physiques that Larwill was fascinated by and soon after his works too began to resemble African sculpture, masks and tribal figures. Embracing his fast-paced technique, Larwill used bold outlines to create his abstract figures alongside surface writings and patterns, creating an explosion of vibrations and movement on the canvas that was to follow him throughout his career. Games 1998, shows the accomplished technique and a deep rendering of influences that go back to this earlier period in Larwill’s practice. Larwill explores the qualities of colour and layering while using dark, silhouetted forms heavily contrasted over a bare white background. Larwill continues to explore the influential impact Picasso made on his work by working with raw primitivist themes, seen in the shield-like heads and the readied stances of each figure in this work. His subjects pose playfully, bouncing across the canvas while his use of pattern takes each figure into a different variation of movement. The naïve patterns floating around each figure are reminiscent of the technique used by Basquiat to emphasize movement and inject a playful child-like energy to the work. Indeed, it is the sheer breadth of Larwill’s intellectual curiosity as a painter which provided his art with so much of its variety and impact giving Larwill a truly international perspective. Larwill was able to maintain a consistent output right up until his death in 2011, earning wide respect for his contribution to the art community and as one of the founding members of the Melbourne-born Roar School studios, lending himself to become one of Australia’s most unique artists.

Tim Storrier Tim Storrier has created a body of work instilled with images of life on the land. The four elements: earth, air, fire and water have provided a successful framework for Storrier to illustrate his impression of the Australian experience. Whilst fire may be his most recognisable element, it is the opposite element, water, that is represented within his most accomplished works. Both elements reveal an untamed power, but by the late 1990s and early 2000s, Storrier was seeking a new direction for his art beyond the flame. Storrier’s biographer, Catharine Lumby, notes that these water paintings are some of his strongest to date and mark a painter in full command of his craft1. His paintings of vast and deep oceans carry a sense of isolation and vulnerability that only a mature artist could successfully harness. “In a series of brooding seascapes, Storrier trained his gaze away from his traditional

Flowers can be thrown out to sea for various reasons including for a blessing, good fortune, or even to honour the deceased as a ‘memento mori’. The Scattering displays a delicate spread of flowers gently resting atop the volatile swell of the sea. The building waves threaten the blooms floating precariously – an allusion to our own fragile mortality. Storrier utilised this combination for his 2018 Wynne Prize entry, At Sea (For Pamela). American actor, Lee Marvin, had passed away in 1987 after which his widow, Pamela, had scattered roses and his ashes into the ocean near Cairns near where Lee’s favourite fishing spot was located. The gesture paralleled with his experience as a marine during the Pacific campaign of World War II. In 2018, Pamela sadly passed away and Tim dedicated this Wynne prize painting to her. Whether a blazing sky, a flying paper plane or a wind-swept ocean, the sheer beauty and artistry of Storrier’s practice is imbued with poetic resonance. Olivia Fuller | Head of Art

“William Robinson’s approach to still life acknowledges both the ‘civilised’ nature of the genre and the simple integrity of the object. He pays a discreet homage to the artists he admires, and shows respect for the humble items he has gathered from many sources. He has not attempted any radical stylistic departures, being content to work from close observation, arranging his subjects in a manner that permits endless variations. The aim is not to break new ground but to dig ever more deeply into a well-worked quarry, uncovering motifs and relationships that are only available to those artists who understand that inspiration is perfectly compatible with the most patient investigation”. 1.

William Robinson

William Robinson has lived across diverse landscapes of the eastern coast of Australia, including Birkdale, Beechmont, Springbrook and Kingscliff. Across most of these locations, Robinson has been immersed within dense rainforest environments which is pivotal to his artistic practice. “I did not paint these works as a visitor to the landscape, but as one who lived in it and experienced it every day”.1 Robinson’s landscapes are set apart from his counterparts, largely because of his unique perspective. His richly detailed paintings depict the landscape from multiple perspectives simultaneously. It is shown to us through a series of inversions, where the sky becomes the ground and the ground the sky. Aside from his belief that his landscapes would need to present a different approach to the Australian terrain, he

33 WILLIAM ROBINSON (born 1936) A Small Study of Sunlight 1998 oil on canvas signed and dated lower left: William Robinson 98 title and date inscribed on backing verso 30 × 40cm PROVENANCE: Tim Olsen Gallery, Sydney Private collection, Melbourne EXHIBITIONS: Sol: A Summer Survey Gallery Artists, Tim Olsen Gallery, Sydney, 18 December - 27 January 2013 Melbourne Art Fair, Olsen Irwin Gallery, Sydney, 4-8 August 2010 $28,000 – 35,000

acknowledges through this multi-point perspective that the landscape is constantly moving around you. The clouds, the leaves, and sun, are always shifting and you are within it. “Living in the country everything moves—the seasons, the clouds, nothing is set. There are things behind you, all around you and you are in it. … You begin to realise that you are in a landscape that is really the crust of the earth. It is air and ground. We’re all just spinning through space. There is something about the painting that is indefinite, not solid.”2 William Robinson’s landscapes are delicately interwoven strokes of impasto paint work, with rich colour palettes to bring to life the intricacies and deep beauty of the landscape. Every leaf is rendered with the same deliberate attention to detail as the sky or towering tree trunks. These little details are what interlace to form the complex Australian landscape that Robinson is so recognised for representing. Across each of Robinson’s homes he has always maintained the experience of being in nature. His works have the ability to transport us to and within the landscape so that we feel we are within it, its branches enveloping us and the sunlight radiating within us. Perhaps it is this transportative quality that has honoured Robinson with being the only living Australian artist to have a public gallery in his name, and why his paintings continue to captivate collectors and critics alike.

On August 9th 1902 Edward VII and his wife Alexandra were crowned King and Queen of the United Kingdom and the British Dominions, and as Emperor and Empress of India, at Westminster Abbey, London on the 9th August 1902. Following the death of Queen Victoria, the new Monarchs are crowned. Australia became a Federation 1901. As the new reigning Queen of Australia, to Edwards’ King, Australians became their subjects. In the left-hand panel a frieze of official royal emblems frames the borders of a highly reflective internal space. Drawn into the painting’s narrative, the audience is captured within the frame; reflected as ghostly images within.” (The Artist) $2,500 – 3,500
