Suburbia - Robin Gibson Gallery

Suburbia - Robin Gibson Gallery Marianne Cara, John Doherty, Guy Gilmour, Geoff Harvey, Ted Hillyer, Max Lieberman, Ishbel Morag M Miller, Ian Pearson, Jeff Rigby, Bryan Westwood and Maryanne Wick.

Eleven artists have been assembled at the Robin Gibson Gallery under the banner of Suburbia. This curious collection of painted images, which include Marianne Cara¹s The Christening Day, Backyard Australia and Ted Hillyer¹s Edge of a Coastal Town, raises the question of where does suburbia begin and finish.

The artists have presented images from every direction north, south, east and west of the Sydney GPO. We see the extraordinary in the ordinary, whether it be Morag Miller¹s explorations of Glebe¹s Foley Park or Bryan Westwood¹s Centennial Park at sunset. There is a woman prostrate in the bath of Guy Gilmour¹s painting of the idyllic suburban bathroom and a series of exquisite pencil drawings by expatriate Maryanne Wick, which capture the pedestrian activity of a Korean neighbourhood.
