- Description: 24th May-30th June 2018. Beginning in 2013, DRESS CODE: The First Five Years is the result of a ritualistic daily drawing practice and series of works, in which the artist's concerns are in response to what she was wearing each day for the last five years. Maryanne Coutts writes, “Dress Code is a project which attempts to harness the ways that the days continue to follow each other, one after the other; unstoppable. It is a journal of what I wear each day – not in a ‘realistic’ or documentary way – but a fluid emotional extension of the creative activity of getting dressed in the morning. Each morning; every morning.” Based in a lively drawing practice, Coutts' work is increasingly an exploration of the relationship between drawing and time. Maryanne Coutts studied at the Victorian College of the Arts (VCA), The University of Melbourne, 1979 -1981, the University of NSW (UNSW),1984 and achieved a PhD at Federation University Australia in1999. She has exhibited extensively throughout Australia and internationally including UK, Spain and Thailand. Select solo exhibitions include Jostle, Australian Galleries, Sydney, 2017; Black News/White News, Coffs Harbour Regional Gallery, Coffs Harbour, 2017; Dress Code #2, Slot, Sydney, 2015 and Threads, Articulate Project Space, Sydney, 2014. A major survey exhibition, Telling Tales was presented at the Art Gallery of Ballarat in 2008. Coutts was jointly awarded the Blake Prize in 1982 and won the Portia Geach Memorial Award in 2007. Maryanne Coutts is currently Head of Drawing at the National Art School, Sydney and is represented by Australian Galleries, Melbourne.

- Description: Bunjils Shelter in the Black Range near Stawell, Victoria, Australia, is generally regarded as one of the most significant rock art sites in Victoria. However, its provenance has been marked by nagging doubts about its authenticity, and for a short period of time it was delisted from the site register of the Victoria Archaeological Survey. A 1925 newspaper article by Rev. John Mathew based on information he obtained from a Wimmera Aboriginal woman at Lake Tyers Aboriginal station in 1924 has the potential to augment the interpretive significance of the site. We now know that the site is commemorative of a major clash between Bunjil and Bunyip and is interwoven with the principle of mother-in-law avoidance. This paper briefly revisits the history of the provenance of the site before discussing the 'new' interpretation.

Cracks in the seams

- Description: Exhibited as part of the Ballarat International Foto Biennale; 19th August-17th September 2017. Cracks in the Seams is a performance installation that will be performed for a video and photo shoot on the diving platforms at the edges of Lake Wendouree, where the historic overlay of original 1920s bathing meets 21st century performance. Trust and tension, control and release and interdependence all meet in this project, with Arts Academy dance students performing the work under the tutelage and direction of performance artist and director Jill Orr. The production will then be shown as a video installation throughout the 2017 Ballarat International Foto Biennale. Exhibited both nationally and internationally, Jill Orr’s performance work centres on issues of the psychosocial and environmental where she draws on land and identities as they are shaped in, on and with the environment, be it country or urban locales. Orr grapples with the balance and discord that exists at the heart of relations between the human spirit, art and nature.

I am becoming German

- Subjects: 1905 Visual Arts and Crafts
- Type: Text , Visual art work
- Identifier: http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/HandleResolver/1959.17/157621 , vital:11651
- Description: 19th August-17th September 2017 I am becoming German (Ich Werde Deutsch) pictures young people, who were forced to leave their countries to start a new life as immigrants in Germany, as well as those who were born in Germany but have grown up under influence of their family's cultural background. The work is based on the impressions, fears, experiences, fates and losses of the young immigrants, by focusing on the individual circumstances of their lives. Maziar Moradi uses staged photographic portraits as the framework to capture and visualise their stories. He lets the immigrants re-enact key scenes of personal developments, dramatic experiences or turning points in their lives and thereby letting the individuals become the actors in their own narratives. Through drama, wit and humour these stories of personal experiences tell about the protagonists' great effort to become "German" and to establish a new life in a foreign country. Shown as part of the Ballarat International Foto Biennale Image: Maziar Moradi, Without Title, 2008, Fine Art Print, 100 x 125cm. Courtesy the artist.
