The Syntax of Style

July - August, 2001


Gallery One

Mark Kimber, SA
Deborah Paauwe, SA
Lyndal Walker, VIC

Lush, seductive and witty, this exhibition features the work by three artists who exploit the language of fashion photography in the pursuit of art. Be it the fetishised implication of tailoring and drape, the seductive but disquieting relation of flesh and fabric or the wish-fulfilment of lifestyle advertising, these images articulate the familiar to new ends. The exhibition brings together Deborah Paauwe's Sugar Nights, Lyndal Walker's All New Personal Style and premieres new work by Mark Kimber.

Runway

Gallery Two

Harold David

Harold David's photographic practice spans the worlds of art, fashion and documentary, but in each aspect he is driven by the need for personal connection in a transient world. In 'Runway' (a title which suggests both a catwalk of fashion and a point of arrival and departure in the modern world), he consciously applies the tactics of one field to the subjects of another. Here the formal lighting of fashion and glamour is used while photographing real people engaged in the often emotionally demanding process of international travel.
