‘In a world transformed by data, perhaps our imaginations can finally be used to perceive reality.’ — Wednesday Sutherland

This January @thelockupartspace presents DATA MINDS - five artists examining the creative and social impacts of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Working across analogue, contemporary and AI-assisted media, artists Roy Ananda, Girl On Road, HIBALL, Jon Rafman and Brie Trenerry approach AI and the Internet not just as a medium, but as tools to be used, exploited or questioned. Curated by Wednesday Sutherland, assisted by Alexandra Kirwood.

Ron Robertson-Swann is the cover artist of issue 6

Ron Robertson-Swann is the cover artist of issue 69. Inside, John Vallance delves into Ron’s life and practice, with a focus on his sculpture and painting.

“Ron Robertson-Swann OAM turned eighty-three this year. That makes well over sixty active-and continuing-years as one of the leading sculptors and painters of his generation. Public interest in his work has waxed and waned and waxed again with changes in fashion. His best-known public art commission, Vault, was unveiled in Melbourne in 1980 and moved multiple times after protests from the critical establishment. The sculpture has now been elevated by Heritage Victoria, no less, to the status of ‘state-level cultural heritage significance;’ its angular yellow influence can be seen across the city on everything from street furniture to t-shirts.”

“Namedropping in Nipaluna / Hobart is a massive show with over 200 works throughout Mona’s numerous underground sites. Varying from He Xiangyu’s Tank Project, 2011-13; to a note from Isaac Newton; to even a puffer jacket made from Maggie Thatcher’s scarves. It’s a mixed bag, and the catalogue, despite potential censorship with printers, covers it all.”

You can read H.R. Hyatt-Johnston’s review of Mona’s exhibition Namedropping via the link in our bio - www.artistprofile.com.au

Namedropping is on view at the Museum of Old and New Art, Hobart, until 21 April 2025.
