About
“Photography is an art of observation.
It has little to do with the things you see and everything to do with the way you see them.”
Elliot Erwitt
“In our time there are many artists who do something because it is new; they see their value and their justification in this newness. They are deceiving themselves; novelty is seldom the essential. This has to do with one thing only; making a subject better from its intrinsic nature.”
Henri de Toulouse Lautrec
Robert F Brindley's artwork encompasses photography, painting and drawing and as principal photographer for Brindleyimages Photography, was a successful commercial photographer. Now his practice as a fine artist employs a broad range of ideas and processes.
Although retired from commercial photographic practice the creativity continues through innovative architectural photography to landscapes enjoining the disciplines of inkjet prints and drawing in his newest work.
His fine art and photographic work has been in private and commercial collections here in Australia and overseas including
GalleryOne88 Katoomba NSW
Bonnefin Gallery Sydney. NSW
Joans On Ridge Street North Sydney NSW
Eumundi Gallery Queensland
Robert is currently working collaboratively with partner and professional performance artist Debra Keenahan providing photographic support for a number of works which have been exhibited at the Museum of Applied Arts and Sciences and The Casula Powerhouse Arts Centre, MCA and AGNSW. Robert's is currently completing a large format fine art book called "Variations Of A Theme by Utzon" ( see preview here ) featuring a series of abstract and atmospheric images of the Sydney Opera House to be published next year.
From using his fathers Kodak Box Brownie camera on school excursions at an early age to using the latest in digital technology and techniques in recent years, Robert's passion is for capturing the world around him from the perspective of a still practicing fine artist. His pastel, ink and acrylic paintings are also in public and private collections in Australia and overseas. A keen bushwalker, many of his images are about the environment.
" I 'borrowed' my father's Box Brownie camera one day back in the Sixties and never gave it back! My father always had a camera in his hands and specialised in holiday photographs of the family. Not just happy snaps but images easily construed as 'photojournalism' And so begun my love and passion attempting to emulate the naturalness of my father's images."
Robert has been nominated as a finalist on a number of occasions in the International Colour Awards for his architectural imagery.
