Art – Emisiaband

ANDREW NICHOLLS tracks the new direction of Paul Uhlmann’s recent works, in part made possible by a residency program.

Amidst the crippling shortage of inner-city studio space currently being suffered in Western Australia, Fremantle Arts Centre has been providing relief in the form of a residency program being run from a small studio in its picturesque grounds.

This initiative is proving critical in allowing early and mid-career artists to produce less commercial, exploratory works that may otherwise have gone unrealised. A

case in point was sculptor Susan Flavell’s superb Unhorsed exhibition of large-scale cardboard works, produced in the space during 2007 (see aAR Issue 15). The latest artist to take advantage of the residency is Paul Uhlmann, one of Western Australia’s most prominent mid-career artists, whose practice incorporates painting, print and photography.
