Ep 42: Lottie Consalvo




Talking with Painters show

Summary: Lottie Consalvo is not only a painter. She works across performance art, photography, video and sculpture.  She’s had 9 solo shows in painting alone in just 8 years and has had many more performances and group shows.<br> In 2015 she was one of only 10 artists chosen to take part in a residency in Sydney with world famous performance artist Marina Abramovic and her solo exhibition of painting and sculpture ‘In the remembering’ opened recently at Heide Museum of Modern Art, one of Australia's most important museums.  What's most surprising is that this is all at only 32 years of age.<br> <br> In this podcast episode, recorded in front of a live audience at Newcastle Art Gallery, we talk about her life and how she got where she is.  She also talks about the way she has brought her painting and performance art together particularly in her work 'Ages and Ages', currently hanging at Heide Museum of Modern Art, pictured above. It was fascinating to hear about the private performance she carried out within that space in order to complete the work.<br> <br> To hear the interview press 'play' or 'subscribe' beneath the feature photo above.<br> <br> You can see a short video of Consalvo including footage of her in her studio on the Talking with Painters YouTube channel <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VeawssZJxdU&amp;t=46s">here</a>.<br> Current shows<br> <br> * 'In the remembering', <a href="https://www.heide.com.au/exhibitions/lottie-consalvo-remembering">Heide MOMA</a>, Melbourne, 10 March - 17 June 2018<br> <br> Show notes:<br> <br> * <a href="https://lottieconsalvo.wordpress.com">Lottie Consalvo</a><br> * <a href="http://www.dominikmerschgallery.com/artist/lottie-consalvo/">Lottie Consalvo at Dominik Mersch</a><br> * <a href="https://www.instagram.com/lottieconsalvo/?hl=en">Lottie Consalvo on Instagram</a><br> * <a href="https://www.heide.com.au/whats-on/exhibitions/now-showing">Museum of Modern Art, Heide</a><br> * <a href="http://kaldorartprojects.org.au/projects/marina-abramovic">Kaldor Public Art projects - Marina Abramovic</a><br> * <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmB-JJguX40">Consalvo painting in Holy Holy music video 'Willow Tree'</a><br> * <a href="http://nag.org.au/Home">Newcastle Art Gallery</a><br> * <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VeawssZJxdU&amp;t=46s">Lottie Consalvo talks about her work on the Talking with Painters Youtube Channel</a><br> <br> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VeawssZJxdU<br> <br> 'in silence' 2017, acrylic on board, 180 x 366cm<br> <br> 'The sound of a heart falling', 2016, acrylic on board, 180 x 122cm<br> <br> 'a distant silence', 2017, acrylic on board, 180 x 122cm<br> <br> 'still 1', 2017, 60 x 60cm, acrylic on board<br> <br> 'Deep in Your Remembering', 2017, 250 x 300cm, acrylic on polyester<br> <br> 'A Constructed Remembering' 2017, Video still, Single channel video 17:05 mins<br> <br> It's too early to love you: music torture piece - ALASKA PROJECTS&lt; Sydney 2014
