Etchings, linocuts, aquatints, lithographs and collage on show 7 May – 28 June 2025
Opening 7th May 6:30pm - 8:30pm
Preview from 26 April
Annandale Galleries is excited to announce that two of the most influential names in modern art will return to the gallery for the first time in over a decade. Featuring etchings, linocuts, aquatints, lithographs and collage, the exhibition traces their stylistic experimentations as well as innovations within printmaking and colour theory.
We see the lasting relevance of Henri Matisse and Robert Motherwell in the way they confronted the unknown and ephemeral qualities that defined their own times. This is evident through their shared love for the poet Mallarmé and his dictum "describe not the object itself but the effect it produces". Not only would they become key figures of their own movements, they created seismic shifts which reverberate to this day.

"Help review and update the Roads Act 1993
With the input and support of councils and peak bodies, we aim to review and update the Roads Act 1993 (The Act) which will empower roads authorities, allow for faster decision making, improve operational processes and deliver a statute which is adaptable for the future.
The Roads Act 1993 is over 30 years old and the NSW Government wants to ensure it continues to be fit-for-purpose. Roads authorities have built in various administrative procedures and workarounds, which have resulted in complex and time-consuming processes for the planning, operation, regulation of activities and management of the road network in NSW.
Working with local government and industry..."

We need land for trees and cycles if we are going to tackle Climate Change.
" In 2005, an average of over 120,000 vehicles travelled through Annandale each dayRTA.
If all these vehicles were the 2010 Holden VE SIDI Commodore Berlina and
they travelled just 1km, they would have generated 301g
CO2-e(greenguide) each. The total CO2-e equivalent generated by Traffic
through Annandale, in just one day, would be 301g*120,000 vehicles
=36,120kg.
A Hardwood Tree, such as box, gum or olive, with a 32cm girth stores 17
kg or the CO2-e of 62kg(Tree Carbon Calculator). To be carbon neutral,
Annandale would need the equivalent of 582 Trees for each day's
