Friday, 27 February 2015. Friday Five: Pottery and Paintings. While walking through the National Gallery of Australia on my way to an event, I strolled trough some of the Indigenous Collections. I loved the terracotta pots from the Hermannsburg potters - descended from Albert Namatjira and influenced by his use of modern style and deep connection to the land. The pots are decorated with scenes from the Western MacDonnell Ranges and tell stories in clay with their own unique, artistic twist. Spelled out i...

Friday, 20 February 2015. Friday Five: White Hot Crucible. I've just been to see the film of the Old Vic production of The Crucible. L Farber with taut,. Crepuscular choreography, including the meticulous scene changes, highlighting the sense of isolation and repression. 5 Points from The NT Live Crucible. The role of Reverend Hale is one of the best example of the transformation of character an actor could ever hope to play. Adrian Schiller delivers one of the most dynamic performances seen on stage.
