Farewell: Sydney

Curtain Call - Stills Gallery,

After sixteen years Stills Gallery in Paddington (Sydney) is to close its doors. It's a unhappy day for images, another nail within the coffin, and perhaps indicative of the adulthood of the images collector market on this united states of america. I even have enjoyed many shows at Stills, a marvellous space and one I wish may additionally retain as an art space. Congratulations to the team at Stills for flying the flag for goodbye.
