Art Almanac | September 2026

This time in Art Almanac, it’s the human impact and transformative potential of place. Sasha Grishin marvels at the huge Arthur Boyd tapestries of the St. Francis legend – the artist having visited Assisi and Gubbio in Italy, places central to the life of a saint; Bronwyn Watson homes in on a Ron Robertson-Swann modernist sculpture with a defining place in the spirit of a regional Victorian city; Emma-Kate Wilson speaks with two artists whose works share personal narratives on Tasmanian landscapes; and Joey Hespe – who joins us on the editorial team – soaks in the new Newcastle Art Gallery space and its service to one of Australia’s most significant regional collections. Warm welcome also to Paul Smith, who settles in as our National Advertising Manager.
