This is the year of the tiger with claws, teeth and attitude which works for me personally as I am trying to get back my backbone, one bone at a time.

Ah Love! Could thou and I with Fate Conspire?

To grasp this sorry Scheme of Things entire,

Would not we shatter it to bits - and then

Re-mound it nearer to the Heart's Desire

The Art Gallery Spaces of UTS - Introduction

Question: 3 Discuss and critically analyse example(s) of 'art' in public/urban spaces.

his essay will explore some of the art gallery spaces in the University of Technology Sydney and the creative examples of some of the artwork, such as paintings, sculptures, photography and undefined mediums. There was last year at the UTS Gallery an exhibition entitled 'Oo (yes) selected paintings & projects' by Maria Cruz, 1996-2009 which will be analysed to unpack the true meaning of this social artist's intention for the audience within the white cube. The amazing sculpture of Margel Hinder will be discussed further on why this architecture-inspired communication object 'Growth Forms' was moved from the foyer of the UTS Tower Building 1. There will also be the reference to the checkered history of this abstract modern art-form which was designed by the artist to blend within the building construct. Jon Lewis a UTS tutor of photography will also be referred to because of his involvement in the 'exhibition space' showcasing how climate change is affecting the Equatorial Pacific. One of the best kept secrets at the University of Technology, Sydney is the UTS Art Collection which is displayed in 'major void areas' of the Tower Building 1 such as level 5 which will be used as another example of gallery spaces catering for mostly Indigenous Australian artists.
