Art Collective WA teams up with criticism platform Dispatch Review for a new artist interview series. Join us in the gallery for our first event on Saturday 16 August, 4pm.
Emerging arts writer Daniel Glover invites artist member Trevor Vickers and art historian Aimee Dodds for an open conversation about the Western Australian art sector. The panel will uncover insights into the good, the bad, and the ugly challenges artists face in 'the West'.
Trevor Vickers is a leading figure in Australian art, with a career spanning over 60 years. He has lived and worked in Perth, Melbourne and the UK. Since returning to Perth in 1995, he continues to explore minimal and geometric abstraction in his paintings, with works held in major national collections.
Aimee Dodds is a Perth based art historian and co-founder of Dispatch Review. She has written for Memo Review, Art Almanac, ArtsHub, and Artist Profile Magazine. Aimee has first class joint honours in the History of Art and English and Cultural Studies from the University of Western Australia.
Daniel Glover is an emerging arts writer and History of Art and Curatorial Studies graduate from the University of Western Australia.
