“If an artwork is elitist, it’s very easy for people to walk past it,” says Nguyen. “But if it deals with issues in a very human and simple way, it enables people to engage.”

The things artists think about don’t actually require art speak says the Melbourne artist. In partnership with ACCA, Nguyen tell us about their new large-scale multilingual commission, which includes installations, videos, workshops and events.

Apart from our First Nation artists, he changed the perspective and way that Australians looked at our magnificent landscape,” Tim Olsen, John’s son said on Tuesday.

“He was a landscape poet to the end and a titan of the Australian art world.”

Born in Newcastle in 1928, Olsen studied art at Julian Ashton Art School, cleaning offices at night. He then enrolled at East Sydney Technical College, where he was taught by John Passmore, and quickly made a name for himself for his studio discipline and love of life. “It took a lot of courage to be an artist in those days and he had no hesitation but to run with it and in art he found his calling,” Tim said.

The celebrated Australian painter’s distinctive and innovative style captured the unique scale and poetic beauty of the Australian landscape.
