MHF #13 by Bevan Honey

7 – 28 March 2009

The traditional drawing medium provides a central pivot for Perth artist Honey, and informs his constructions and multiples,  whose immaculately delicate surfaces are achieved by painstakingly long application processes. Honey’s works  bring together the real and the imagined, employing irony and humour to comment on the Australian vernacular for the Mark Howlett Foundation Commission no 13.

Women and War Photographic Exhibition

5 – 8 March

This International Red Cross exhibition provides an insight into how wars and their aftermath continue to

affect women. Photographs from countries    including Timor-Leste, Afghanistan, Bosnia-Herzegovina and

Sudan, reveal women’s experience of wars through displacement, sexual violence, lack of access to food

and vital medical care, loss of contact with loved ones, and as detainees and fighters.
