    Artoble Podcast: Geoff Warn, Simon Gilby and Richard King

    Send us a message Listen to Lyn DiCiero in conversation with Geoff Warn from With Architecture Studio and Wallace gallery space and Being and Flux exhibition collaborators artist Simon Gilby and writer Richard King. Geoff Warn reveals the beginnings of Wallace and its unusual operating method that puts creativity above commercial value. Both Simon and Richard discuss their unique partnership for their exhibition at Wallace, where visual art and the written word meld and develop to explore new frontiers for both.  Geoff Warn is co-founder of With Architecture Studio, and Wallace, a gallery space with its walls in Northbridge. With was established in 1985 and has over 40 years of commissions and awards across architecture, urban design, master planning, interior architecture and public art. The first exhibition at Wallace was in 2021 with a unique gallery model which avoids commercial and funded stereotypes and delves into interpretations which might not otherwise be seen. Simon Gilby studied at Claremont School of Art. He's regularly in group exhibitions, has lectured at various universities over the years and undertakes public art commissions, working with towns and communities across Western Australia. He instigated The Syndicate in 2010, championed and organised by collector Lloyd Horn, where a group of collectors pooled funds to allow artists to work unrestricted by income to stretch their practice into new realms. His work explores what it means to be human with changes around technology and culture. In this exhibition he explores concept of self in the modern world.  Richard King is an author, critic and poet based in Fremantle, whose work appears widely, including in Best Australian Science Writing, The Australian, The Sydney Morning Herald, The Monthly and The London Magazine. His book, Brave New Wild, about to be launced at the end of the exhibition, asks whether technology can really save the planet.  Listen on the go with Artoble Podcasts!

    Artoble Podcast: Between Worlds: The Vision of Rina Franz

    Send us a message Listen to Lyn DiCiero in conversation with Rina Franz, whose exhibition Between Worlds: The Vision of Rina Franz is on show at the City of Perth’s Council House Gallery until 31 October 2025. Born in Rome, she initially studied architecture and art history before migrating to Western Australia and studying art at Edith Cowan and Curtin University. She went on to teach students herself at Curtin University, Edith Cowan University and the University of WA, and spent 34 years lecturing at TAFE until last year. Her years teaching has matched an intensive art practice, exploring space, distance, time, memory and the contrast of living between two cultures. She’s exhibited around Australia and internationally during her lengthy career, winning numerous awards along the way, and is represented in major public art collections both in Australia and overseas.  In this podcast, Rina discusses her life and influences and, battling recent ill health, reflects on a lifetime of art. In particular two works are discussed –  an earlier work from the 1990s and her most recent exhibited work:  1994: PICA Boans installation, held inside two disused cool rooms. Amidst the lingering smell of its former life as storage for meat goods, the work created the illusion of infinite space using both physical pillars and drawn perspective, creating a disorientating experience within the small confines of the space. 2024: The Invisible Thread, 170 blue and white linen collars, approximately 4m x 4m 4m, suspended from the ceiling of Lawrence Wilson Art Gallery recalls the lives of seamstresses like her mother, with the names of clients, found in her mother’s workbooks following her death, embroidered to each one. The works also refers to the post war social divide of blue and white collar workers, with seamstresses quietly connecting both ends of the spectrum. Listen on the go with Artoble Podcasts!
