Summary |
Sandra McMahon, Director of Tamworth Regional Gallery, has curated this survey show for the first time bringing together key works from a career that spans more than 20 years. This show opened at The Tamworth Regional Gallery 16 June, 2012 and concludes at the S.H. Ervin Gallery, Sydney in January 2013. Walcha-based artist Angus Nivison draws his inspiration from the poetic vision, the big sky, the fierce weather, his grazier heritage, the trees, mountains and waterfalls. A farmer before painting fulltime, he was born here like his father before him. He lives and breathes this landscape and it finds its way irrevocably, transmuted and transformed, abstracted and acknowledged, into his work |
