Looking back at Art Edit issue 26 cover profile on GERWYN DAVIES:

"In Gerwyn Davies’ work there is an innate contradiction. What we are invited to observe is instantly concealed and denied to us. We are presented with a lone, highly visible figure, parading with extravagance amidst a strangely unfamiliar and sparse urban landscape.

Yet this creature, loud and garish, does not wish to be seen. Identity is teased before us yet forbidden and every part of the subject’s body is choreographed just for the lens of a camera."

Starting next week at Michael Reid Berlin:

'Utopia'
by GERWYN DAVIES
7 - 29 May 2021

"These works respond to time spent in Los Angeles and Palm Springs; cities that emphasise allure, cities heavily invested in fantasy, cities with vibrantly rendered buildings and gardens that mask truths, cities whose emblematic palm trees are themselves works of fiction, imported and mass planted prior to the Olympics, props in a spectacle that survive as the city’s icons."

Holding onto that Spring Feeling, with a visit to Marzahn to 'Gardens of the World' (@gaertenderwelt)

Marzahn Recreational Park, today better known as the "Gardens of the World", was opened by the East Berlin government in 1987. Across a space the size of 60 football pitches you can find Japanese, Balinese, Middle Eastern and Korean gardens as well as a cable car running above the lush spaces below.

Congratulations to REGINA PILAWUK WILSON & NICI CUMPSTON, who have both been selected to participate in the first Indigenous Triennial at Winnipeg Art Gallery.

Entitled 'To Draw Water', this exhibition will be tri-national; sharing artworks from Turtle Island/Canada, Australia, and Aotearoa/New Zealand, reflecting on international Indigenous connections to water — spiritually, environmentally, politically, socially, and culturally, looking into collective histories and fragilities of the future.

Both artists also have work in our current Sydney group show (pictured):

TIMOTHY COOK
at Michael Reid Berlin
until May 1 2021: FINAL WEEK

A wonderful image of another central element of TIMOTHY COOK's practice: dance.

A video installation featuring Timothy's dance practice was featured in the National Gallery of Victoria’s ‘TIWI’ exhibition last year, alongside the dancing of twenty-five other artists.

Timothy's dance is 'Tartuwali' – shark - and dance constitutes an important avenue for regional traditions to be expressed on Melville Island.
