About Me

Well I've been told that I've been copping out not saying anything about my self on this page so I will try to dispense a little about my self to the wide world of web. I'm a writer by trade, nothing too creative I'm not one of those writers who is able to be all inventive and stuff, I manly concern myself with Art History and Theory...yeah riveting I hear you say but a get a buzz out of it. I also work in the far more exciting world of Arts Administration...Curating Shows, Running galleries, writing reviews and generally trying to help my artist friends make a name for themselves. I mostly reside in the Academy of the Arts at Inveresk Tasmania where I Teach Art Theory, work in the Gallery and also spend a lot of my time writing my post-grad thesis. I think I may be the only non-artist in the building which is kind of strange but I love being able to work in an environment where I'm surrounded by artists. When I'm not being all academic I'm usually to be found with a beer in the kitchen, with cooking being one of my favourite pastimes...it could have something to do with the eating..or bush walking through Tassie’s central Highlands. Um...what else...I'm a Green (oh so green) with definite Marxist leanings. I was once criticised by being called a political watermelon but I've always been happy to be Green on the outside and Red in the Middle.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Who would I like to meet?. This question is always a bit of a problem 1). I don't like to set-up idols, I always end up disappointed, and 2). the whole 'If I could meet anyone from history who would it be?' question is a bit to middle class dinner party for me.If I had to pick one person I wouldn't...but near the top of my list would be Fidel Castro, not just because he's a commie, but because of the amazing life he has led and his photographic memory, which just fascinates me.
