Indepth Arts News: "Orbit ignition, lift off, flying ... yet a continuing relationship with a parent body." 2001-07-26 until 2001-09-01 University of South Australia, Art Museum Adelaide, SA, AU Australia
Featured in the exhibition is the work of some exemplary School of Art educated artists and designers of our time - Kerry Argent, Annette Bezor, Aleks Danko, Mandy Martin, Leslie Matthews, Trevor Nickolls, Ken Orchard, Josephine Starrs & Leon Cmielewski, Catherine Truman, Hossein & Angela Valamanesh, Gerry Wedd and Diana Edwards and Jason Spencer from Ian Kidd Design Pty Ltd (IKD).
Orbit, with its diverse and independent trajectories, is just a sampler, really, charting a mere indicative few of the many individuals of talent upon whom the school's contemporary reputation so firmly rests.
Ian North in his catalogue essay asks us to consider the work in Orbit as we find it, like the star-child floating above the earth at the end of Stanley Kubrick's 2001, the artists presented may now only feel a residual connection to their parent body and it is more appropriate to applaud than to claim their achievements, even as they generously assist the School of Art to celebrate the first decade of the University of South Australia
