Margaret Ackland, until October 17, Flinders Lane Gallery, Melbourne
Margaret Ackland's latest exhibition, Mementos at Flinders Lane Gallery is nearly coming to a close and it's well worth a visit to see her current body of work.
Exquisite. The paintings are not only technically brilliant but beautifully remniscent of the humanity inhabiting them. Margaret has an extraordinary ability to evoke the ghost in the threads. In the "flesh" they are jewels! No wonder so many have sold.
What's going on in the real art world?
Welcome to "In The Real Art World" and please excuse the pun.
"In The Real Art World" alerts you to the best exhibitions of representational "realism" which are on at the moment anywhere in the world. Whether it be in a Museum or a commercial gallery, the main focus will be on contemporary art without ignoring the great art of the past.
Although I appreciate good art in any form it takes, I noticed that there are a multitude of sites dedicated to what's happening now in contemporary art. But there is no site that specialises in letting you know where to see the best of representational "realism" that is either contemporary, or of the past.

I don't know - technically great, but why?
Reminds me of Sadie Valerie's work with wax paper only not as good.
