The retrospective includes paintings, sculpture, prints, and drawings�some of which are being shown for the first time�and reveals Gorky�s development as an artist and the evolution of his singular visual vocabulary and mature painting style. - Read Indepth Article at http://www.absolutearts.com

Tosari Galleries, Toowoomba, QL AU Australia The birth of Trisha Lambi�s first child in 1996 proved to be the catalyst to fulfill her life long dream of becoming an artist. She started doing portraits of her son and progressed to running a small portrait business. She also found time to start oil painting - before this she had painted only three or four pieces so it was a steep learning curve. In 2003 she was invited to participate in the Fourth Edition of the Biennale Internazionale dell�Arte Contemporanea in Florence, Italy and she hasn�t looked back. Trisha has promoted her artwork with a Premiere Portfolio at absolutearts.com since - Read Indepth Article at http://www.absolutearts.com

INSIDERS
Alice Cavender, France
 If you're coming to Bordeaux in the next few months, there is a stop you absolutely have to make. If the thought hadn't crossed your mind, plan a trip to Bordeaux anyway, come and taste the local specialities and save a day for a peek at the INSIDERS exhibition showing at the Entrepot Laine until the 7th of February 2010. You won't be disappointed. The latest co-venture between CAPC museum of contemporary art and arc en reve centre d'architecture is worth the trip. Centred on the uses, practices and know-how that have developed over the past decades, the imposing colonial warehouse is home to a colourful and well-thought-up selection of art and architectural works that bring the true concept of DIY to life. The exhibition presents a new type of creation, that who has come to life following massive globalisation of our societies. It's a creation that goes beyond this globalisation, looking for new ways of expressing itself, bringing together such things as daily life practices and artistic approaches, handcraft and state-of-the-art technology, human beliefs and rituals and industrial production. It all comes down to the fact that everyone is or can be an artist, that the everyday production that Mankind has found to respond to pragmatic or more utopian ideas can be and is art. This new network of resources and creativity makes up the INSIDERS, those who think up a new way of creating art, architecture - a new way of life.
