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
"I think that these artists are waaaaaaaay over-rated. who ever writes there essays are just charging there work with so much political nuances that it just doesnt match the visual work. its sad to know that they are far more interesiting artists living in puerto rico and being the fact that they live so distant from the whole art scene that they are ignored. move over wannabees let the real ones come through."
--James Dalmau

"Awesome show at Gagosian I saw the Sally Mann's they were awesome and the Kami Portraits were great!"
--Paul Edelstein

"Thanks also to Arden then... feel free to contact me on my e-mail: paolotamburella (at) gmail (dot) com ciao Paolo"
