Tim Hawkinson's first Australian exhibition "Mapping the Marvellous," is currently on show at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney. In addition to photo collages and drawings, The Los Angeles based artist is best known for creating theatrical sculptural and installation works through the use of mundane materials. Works on display include a bat constructed from plastic bags and an iris made of green biros. Hawkinson initially graduated from San Jose State University before later earning his MFA at the University of California. Exhibitions in which he has previously displayed his work include the 1999 Venice Biennale, "Zoopsia" - a solo exhibition at the Getty in Los Angeles and "How Man is Knit" at the Pace Wildenstein, New York earlier this year.

DISCUSSION
"Damian Loeb was featured on DailyServing on 11/25/2006. http://www.dailyserving.com/2006/11/damian_loeb.php"
--Editor

"I found the critic's comment unjustified. While it is inevitable there will be similarities among painters, I find Holly's work quite different from that of Damian Loeb, particularly in style. I don't see the blurring occurring nearly as much in Damian's work. In fact, I would be quicker to associate him with painter Eric Zener. In any case, there are whole movements in art where a lot of the resulting work clearly relates to its contemporaries, both in content and style. But it is what keeps art in constant motion; we feed off of one another."

"I saw this exhibition, and wrote about it here."
