The Painter and the Emperor exhibition
"For many women artists the story (of the 'Painter and the Emperor') is relevant in that, although their art production may have been put on hold, their ideas were fermenting or being expressed in small works that would eventually form the basis of a continuing and evolving practice."
In 1978, Ngaire Mules, Kate Hill and Janelle Aston produced a 25 minute videotape, as part of a course run by Philip Dadson, at Elam School of Fine Arts. The aim of the video, which was made using a Sony portapack with a hand-held camera, was to examine women’s attitudes towards combining motherhood with their practice as an artist.
Exhibition ends next week 11 August.
