Ep 88: Peter O’Doherty and ‘The distance between us’

Summary: <br> Since episode 87 the world has changed. <br> <br> <br> <br> Those huge changes to our whole society and way of life, brought about by the threat of COVID-19, have coincided with the opening of Peter O'Doherty's show at King Street Gallery on William, prophetically called 'The distance between us'.<br> <br> <br> <br> I was planning to film a short video at the opening, asking Peter about his show, but this instead turned into a phone interview which I decided to post as an episode. In addition to his show we also talk about the impacts of the virus both on the visual arts and music industries.<br> <br> <br> <br> This interview was recorded on Thursday 19 March and posted on 23 March and a lot had changed in the intervening 4 days including the temporary closing of the doors of King Street Gallery on William. The show is still online and you can see it <a href="https://kingstreetgallery.com.au/exhibitions/the-distance-between-us/?fpage=thumbnails">here .</a><br> <br> <br> <br> My goal in the next weeks and months is to keep us connected by continuing to bring you the stories of Australian painters through the podcast and social media. <br> <br> <br> <br> If you haven't already you can connect with me on any of these platforms:<br> <br> <br> <br> * <a href="https://www.instagram.com/talking_with_painters/?hl=en">Instagram</a>* <a href="https://www.facebook.com/talkingwithpainters/">Facebook</a>* <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrThrSazf3NYKK4ybC8CTjw">YouTube</a>* <a href="https://twitter.com/painterstalk?lang=en">Twitter</a>* <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/maria-stoljar-5016a944/?originalSubdomain=au">Linked In</a><br> <br> <br> <br> A short video of Peter's show will be posted on the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrThrSazf3NYKK4ybC8CTjw">Talking with Painters YouTube channel </a>soon!<br> <br> <br> <br> Photo (cropped) by Riste Andrievski<br> <br> <br> <br> Current Show<br> <br> <br> <br> * 'The distance between us', <a href="https://kingstreetgallery.com.au/exhibitions/the-distance-between-us/?fpage=thumbnails">King Street Gallery on William</a>, Darlinghurst, Sydney<br> <br> <br> <br> Show Notes<br> <br> <br> <br> * <a href="https://talkingwithpainters.com/2018/02/25/ep-40-peter-odoherty/">Peter O'Doherty on Talking with Painters</a>* <a href="https://kingstreetgallery.com.au/exhibitions/the-distance-between-us/?fpage=thumbnails">Peter O'Doherty at King Street Gallery on William</a>* <a href="https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1014535423">Peter O'Doherty on Facebook</a>* <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULlT4GyhqbY">Peter O'Doherty Talking with Painters video on YouTube</a> * <a href="https://susanodoherty.com.au">Susan O'Doherty</a>* <a href="https://regmombassa.com">Reg Mombassa</a>* <a href="https://kingstreetgallery.com.au/exhibitions/gardens-fragments-of-life-and-loss/?fpage=thumbnails">Leo Robba's exhibition at King Street Gallery on William</a>* <a href="https://dogtrumpet.net/home">Dog Trumpet website</a>* <a href="https://www.facebook.com/www.dogtrumpet.net/">Dog Trumpet on Facebook</a><br> <br> <br> <br> Edgecliff high rise, 2019, acrylic on canvas, 198x167cm<br> <br> <br> <br> Red block Bondi, 2019, acrylic on canvas, 61x61cm<br> <br> <br> <br> Pot and stove top, 2019, acrylic on canvas, 61x61cm<br> <br> <br> <br> Hotel sink #1, 2019, acrylic on canvas, 61x61cm<br> <br> <br> <br> <br>
