CJ Hendry and Ricky Swallow: two of Australia's biggest arts exports on ambition and success, plus Latai Taumoepeau's live art as protest

Three artists in their prime talk to The Art Show... CJ Hendry specialises in hyper-real paintings, but she’s just as comfortable with the art of the spectacle as she is creating the art itself - her recent showcase exhibition in NY got shut down because it drew too many people. Fellow expat Ricky Swallow has been taking LA by storm with his striking bronze sculptures, but is returning home for his first foray into public art. And Sydney-based Pasifika artist Latai Taumoepeau's monumental work is a vital call to action on climate change.

Public hands and climate change: Nell, Mike Hewson, and Olafur Eliasson

Nell, who has a major retrospective at Heide Museum, speaks to Ramesh Mario Nithiyendran about ghost motifs, smiling poop, and how collaborative projects have changed her perspective on art.

You can see Presence, a major collection of his work, at GOMA in Brisbane. And Mike Hewson explains how he came to create playgrounds, saunas and barbecues as part of his art practice and how he become comfortable with the public clambering all over his work.

Dangerously Modern Ep 3: Dorrit Black

In episode 3 of the series Dangerously Modern, we're following the journey of the magnificent Dorrit Black. Dorrit arrived in London in 1927 and embraced modernism in the new medium of lino cut printmaking. She went on to start her own Modern Art Centre in Sydney in the 1930s and inspired the next generation of artists. But professional rivalry and her status as an ‘unmarried daughter’ would challenge her autonomy and legacy. Produced and presented by Rosa Ellen and commissioned by the Art Gallery of South Australia. After a season at AGSA, the exhibition of Dangerously Modern is on at the Art Gallery of NSW until February 16, 2026.

Dangerously Modern Ep 2: Stella Bowen

In episode 2 of the series Dangerously Modern we follow the painter Stella Bowen, who left Adelaide for Europe and was part of a storied avant-garde art scene in Paris in the 1920s. Overseas, a young Stella met the writer Ford Maddox Ford, a relationship that sparked her intellectually but ultimately sabotaged her own career. It wasn't until she struck out on her own as a single mother, that Stella painted her most compelling work and achieved a fragile success. Produced and presented by Rosa Ellen and commissioned by the Art Gallery of South Australia.
