NEW SOUTH WALES
SPRINGWOOD OLYMPUS: MYTHS, LEGENDS AND THE GODS 1 SEPTEMBER TO 5 DECEMBER NORMAN LINDSAY GALLERY AND MUSEUM 14 Norman Lindsay Crescent Faulconbridge NSW 2776 Amanda Trevillion and Gaye McKenna (02) 4751 1067 nlg@hermes.net.au www.normanlindsay.com.au Norman Lindsay, even as a child, gained great pleasure from reading adventure stories, ancient myths and legends. He loved the Greek gods, the lost world of Atlantis, the haunting Sirens whose song could lure sailors to their death, and in particular, Homer’s epic, The Odyssey. That myths and legends were both his inspiration and fascination is made evident by the many artworks wherein fantastical creatures such as nymphs, fauns, satyrs, centaurs, sphinx and sirens appear. The new exhibition at the Norman Lindsay Gallery features the enigmatic Sphinx, who legend has it guarded the pass to the ancient city of Thebes strangling any passers by who could not answer her riddle; the winged horse, Pegasus, who later rose to the skies and became a constellation; and the Siren (or Harpie) who had the head and breasts of a woman but the body and wings of a bird. Included works also feature the gods, Aphrodite, Dionysus and Eros, the god of love and the son of Aphrodite (Venus). Armed with bow and arrow, like Cupid, he shot the darts of desire into the hearts of humans and gods alike. Lindsay’s watercolour Eros, is a beautiful example of a 1920s watercolour andshows Eros winged behind the central figure.
