Title
Fiona MacDonald: Local Studies 2: Legend and Legacy
Date
19 March 2010 - 25 April 2010
Place
Wollongong City Gallery, Wollongong, NSW
Description

Here abstracted drawing and restrained colour washes lend a bittersweet nostalgia to the Legend and Legacy series. Nostalgia — from the Greek, literally ‘pain of home’ — prompts uncomfortable memories of a home-town with a proudly independent, left-leaning political culture that is now ailing, its Labour Council and local government squeezed between unscrupulous business interests and Labor Party factions who call the shots and pre-selections from afar.
