Mossgreen Gallery Artists Neville French has been awarded a $20,000 grant from the Visual Arts Board of the Australia Council to create a new series of porcelain vessels based on the Willandra dry lake basins in southern NSW. This is an area of profound significance for its record of geological evolution and cultural record of earliest Australians. It is a place of great spiritual significance and national heritage. At Lake Mungo the land has been sculpted by climatic changes spanning 120,000 years and the light, saturated colour and vast space are extraordinary.

Neville French has also been shortlisted for the Gold Coast International Ceramic Art Award at the Gold Coast City Art Gallery

Winter Vessel 2007 was selected by the judge Marea Gazzard for acquisition for the Gold Coast Art Gallery permanent collection.

2005:
Neville was recently selected to have his artwork showcased at COLLECT, a major international art fair for contemporary objects, to be held at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London from the 12th to the 17th of Jan 2005. The exhibition was established by the British Crafts Council in 2004 to promote outstanding contemporary craft and design and involves invited international galleries showing selected artists work. Neville’s work will be exhibited alongside the work of Robin Best and Merran Esson, under the banner ‘Australian Contemporary’, with the curatorial theme ‘Perceptions of Antipodean Identity – A Survey of  the Sense of Place.’

“Landscape, nature and identity are the themes explored by the three selected artists presented by Australian Contemporary at Collect 2005. The artists have been selected for the eloquence with which their ceramic work communicates an intimate sense of place in relation to aspects of Australian landscape, nature and identity by drawing on experience and observation. They all share a focus on explorations of the environment coupled with searches for central issues.”

Stephen Bowers
Director of Jamfactory Contemporary Craft and Design in Adelaide and co-ordinator of Australian Contemporary to be shown at Collect 2005 London.

“Neville has been invited to give an “artist’s talk” on Perceptions of Antipodean Identity:

A Survey of the Sense of Place, at the Menzies Centrte for Australian Studies at Kings College, London.”

Collect Exhibition at the Victoria and Albert Museum, London.
