To May 3 Articulate Matter is a manifesto to our relationship with air. The continent generally perceives itself as experiencing good air quality*, despite various events such as bushfires causing extreme short-term impacts. As these once-infrequent events increase in occurrences and duration over the past decade, we are confronted with reality: average temperatures are rising, and regions are experiencing higher dust pollutants. We also understand that what we derive from air depends on what we put into it. An infinite loop of air changing life and our living changing air. This isn’t passive. Articulate Matter is an expression of gratitude, of concern, of hope, and of acknowledgement that the air around us is our durational self-portrait.
Artists: Jacobus Capone, Hannah Foley, Loren Kronemeyer, Emily Parsons-Lord, David Sequera, Philip Wolfhagen, and Jemima Wyman. Curated by Caine Chennatt. Presented by the Plimsoll Gallery and Ten Days on the Island in partnership with the Centre for Safe Air.
*Australia State of the Environment 2021 and 6th for Air Quality in the Environmental Performance Index.

Museum at Inveresk:
To July 20 This Vanishing World: Photography of Olegas Truchanas is the story of a man who loved Tasmania and its wild places. For 20 years, Olegas Truchanas explored Tasmania’s wild places, pushing his body and practice to the limit. Motivated by a love of nature and natural beauty, his legacy is a story told in images. Through the lens of his camera, This Vanishing World shares the journey of Truchanas and his campaign for Tasmanians to have greater awareness of their incredible home state – alongside the major influence he left on the wilderness photographers who followed him. Free entry.

Art Gallery at Royal Park:
To May 25 Clarice Beckett: Paintings from the National Collection presents an intimate, rarely seen group of works by one of the most original artists of early 20th century Australia. Deeply sensitive to the effects of colour, light and atmosphere, Beckett painted the life and scenery of her coastal home in south-east Naarm/Melbourne with an eye for the commonplace and fleeting effects of nature. Her work captures a world on the cusp of modernisation, evoking both the natural environment and simple pleasures of suburbia. In 1972, the artist’s sister, Hilda Mangan, donated a group of Beckett’s works to the National Gallery. It is this collection that will be on view, their freshness and vitality recently restored by extensive conservation treatment. This National Gallery touring exhibition is supported by The Australian Government through Visions of Australia. Free entry.

To May 25 Gentle Protagonist: Art of Michael McWilliams. QVMAG is proud to present the first-ever public exhibition of the works of much-loved Tasmanian artist Michael McWilliams, one of Australia’s most successful and widely recognised artists. His quirky and whimsical landscapes, depicting wildlife, and domestic and feral species, in Tasmanian bushland, farmyards, gardens and houses, have captivated audiences around Australia and internationally. McWilliams’ works project a great affection for his subjects and while often humorous, can also carry a darker observation on human effects on the environment. The exhibition is the first holistic survey of McWilliams’ art, exploring his life and career, his place in the canon of Australian and international art, and his empathy with the wildlife and natural environment of Tasmania. Free entry.
