Alchemy of Thinking by Danilo Pravica
Born in the former Yugoslavia, Danilo Pravica has lived in Perth since 1997. Through form and colour, Pravica transforms the human and the natural worlds into intimations of the infinite, implying the interconnectedness of all things, including the physical and the spiritual. His figures are somehow disembodied, even spectral, certainly universal. Human existence meets the heavenly sphere in Pravica’s oil paintings, drawings and aquatints.

Japanese Design Today 100

17-31 May

SUBARU360_Fuji Heavy Industries Ltd

An insight into the nature of contemporary Japanese culture is offered by this unique collection of Japanese designed household items. The exhibition presents designs for domestic objects produced during the 1990s, plus it casts a glance backwards to the roots of contemporary design, from the postwar Japan of the 1950s. There is the world’s smallest radio and TV, the Walkman and other innovative electronic devices, cars, bikes, furniture and solutions for practical clothing and low cost accommodation.

Japanese Design Today 100 celebrates the achievements, past and present, of the country’s design leaders and is presented by The Japan Foundation and the Consulate-General of Japan in Perth.
