Chris AnticoArtist Statement:Being a surfer I had never really gotten down to Coogee Beach; NO WAVES!But I had always recognized the difference to the city’s other ocean beaches with its deep, protected waters and many swimming baths. Walking along the promenade I feel the pull of the bygone summer and its offering of the weird and wonderful; much of it still laying in wait, framed between the fishing dinghies tucked into the north shoulder of the beach, anchoring the WEDDING CAKE to its very spot, to the criss-cross of wooden beams making up Wylie’s Baths.Exhibitions:2005 - Marlene Antico2000 - 02 Michael Carr 1994 - 98 Olsen Carr 1991 - Blaxland Galleries 1990 - International School of Art, Umbria 1988 - 90 Barry Stern Awards:1993 - AGNSW Moya Dyring Studio, Cite Des Artes, Paris1989 - NSW Traveling Art Scholarship Finalist:2007 - Salon Des Refuse2000 - AGNSW Sporting Portrait Prize and the SH Irvin Prize 1999 - Mosman Art Prize 1998 - Fleurieu Biennale, SA 1998 - Australia Day Council |
