ArtExpress (2.5/5)
ARTEXPRESS showcases the most outstanding work from the previous year’s Higher School Certificate examination in NSW.
Art Gallery of New South Wales, Sydney
14th February – 19th April 2009
The subdued times in which we live are reflected in this year’s works; nonetheless the idealism of youth remains strong. Whilst sometimes naive to older viewers we all grew through such adolescent experimentation and is to be encouraged. The video art is particularly strong, see Emily Minard’s stylised video game and Christian Anstey’s slowly evolving colours. Amongst the traditional works Andrew Smith’s large street scene in heavy oils is rightly prominently hung in the entrance.
