SUMMARY:Artists Talk with Damon Kowarsky & Exhibition launch by David Frazer
DESCRIPTION:BOOK NOW\nMeet the artists presenting an Australian European Connection at Buda Castlemaine\, with a special artist’s talk by Damon Kowarsky and the official opening by David Frazer with wine and canapes. \n“This talk will look at depictions of landscape through my work and the contemporary and historical printmakers who have influenced it. \nLandscape [along with portraiture and still life] is one of the three big themes in art. This talk will consider the ways landscape has expanded and contracted in response to new ideas about the world\, and how it has come to be central to my current practice. \nIn a country as urbanised as Australia there is a paradox in our desire to visually depict landscape as separate from everyday experience – the Heidelberg School famously caught the train to paint their pastoral idylls. \nFor me it is this discomfort with our place in this country that feeds the enduring power of landscape art. It is also\, given the truly astonishing environments we live in and at the margins of\, a huge joy and privilege to be able to depict them through the medium of print.” \nDamon Kowarsky \nDamon Kowarsky | Equinox Printmakers | Sharon Greenaway | Dianne Longley | special guest David Frazer \nBOOK NOW\nDamon Kowarsky studied printmaking at Victorian College of the Arts and Glasgow School of Art.

SUMMARY:Exhibition - A European Australian Connection
DESCRIPTION:Buda Historic Home and Garden is the European villa of Hungarian silversmith Ernest Leviny built during the Victorian goldrush. Damon Kowarsky is an Australian artist working across drawing printmaking and painting who will address this European Australian connection as an exhibition within the heritage home. Having travelled extensively\, Kowarsky uses precise artmaking techniques to question architectural exteriors in Australia and Europe presenting factual reality as an illusion with a pristine finish and tactile nature. \n   \nEquinox Printmaking is operated by long-standing printmakers Nancye Canobie and Keith Wiltshire and specialises in both stone and metal plate lithography. Sharon Greenaway is a Bendigo based floral artist and photographer\, who’s artistic practice revolves around creating exquisite art\, juxtaposed with the fragility of humanity and our place in the natural world of the Central Goldfields region. Equinox and Greenaway will explore the connection between the European heritage garden and its context within the Central Victorian landscape as one of the most significant large nineteenth or early twentieth century suburban gardens surviving in Victoria. \nGeneral Admission applies \nNaarm – Damon Kowarsky \nEquinox Printmaking \nFloral Art by Sharon Greenaway \nDamon Kowarsky studied printmaking at Victorian College of the Arts and Glasgow School of Art.

SUMMARY:Books at Buda
DESCRIPTION:Books at Buda – Meet Nanette Carter and Robyn Oswald-Jacobs\nFrances Burke was Australia’s most influential and celebrated textile designer of the 20th century. From the late 1930s to 1970\, her designs achieved a prominence unparalleled in Australia before or since. \nIn March 2020 Buda was finally able to re-instate the Frances Burke ‘Totem’ design curtains in the Dining Room after many years of waiting to find the appropriate replacement fabric. \nIn 2005 it was decided that the original curtains dating from around 1950\, were in such a poor state and beyond conservation\, that they should be removed to preservation storage. An attempt was made to have the fabric replicated in the following years\, but Buda was unable to do that due to copyright of the Burke design. \nContact was made with Robyn Oswald-Jacobs and Nanette Carter who wrote the book on Frances Burke and it is through them that a small bolt of the original ‘Totem’ design fabric in the exact same mustard colour of the originals came to light. Buda was able to secure a donation to pay for the fabric and the vendor was most happy to see it used to make the new\, replacement curtains. \nFrances Burke ‘Totem’ design curtains in the dining room \nJoin the authors of the book celebrating the life and work of Frances Burke at Buda House\, in conversation with Emma Busowsky\, Curator of the Bendigo Art Gallery.\nAfternoon tea will be provided \nPlease note that the authors will be signing books and chatting to guests after the event. \n$20 – includes entry to Buda House\, afternoon tea and a 10% discount on the book. \nBOOK NOW\n[vc_separator type=’normal’ position=’center’ color=’#ffffff’ thickness=’40’ up=” down=”] \n\n\n\nAbout the authors:\nNanette Carter completed a master’s degree in art history focusing on the development of modern design in Melbourne in the 1930s. She subsequently researched and wrote on post-war interiors by designer and artist Clement Meadmore. Her 2015 PhD on the emergence of DIY culture in the post-war period in Australia was jointly supervised by the School of Historical Studies and the Faculty of Architecture\, Building and Planning at the University of Melbourne. \nIndependent scholar Robyn Oswald-Jacobs completed a diploma in textile design at RMIT before undertaking a research master’s degree on textile designer Frances Burke. In part as a result of this research the Textile Resource Collection: Australian Fashion and Textile Design was established by the Department of Fashion and Textile Design at RMIT. Managed by Oswald-Jacobs\, the centre collected\, exhibited\, and published archival material\, later forming the foundation of the RMIT Design Archives \n\n\n\n​[vc_row][vc_column width=’1/3′]  [/vc_column][vc_column width=’1/3′][/vc_column][vc_column width=’1/3′][/vc_column][/vc_row] \nBOOK NOW

SUMMARY:The Josine McEwan 2022 fundraising dinner
DESCRIPTION:BOOK NOW\nCome and join us for a 3 course winter meal for the annual Josine McEwan fund-raising dinner with renowned geologist Clive Willman presenting ‘Living among the Mines”. \nThe late Josine McEwan was a volunteer in the garden at Buda Historic Home & Garden in Castlemaine.  Knowing how important Buda is to the region and wanting it to remain open for future generations to enjoy\, Josine left a generous bequest to Buda when she passed away in 2006. Since 2007 an annual lecture and fundraising dinner has been conducted in Josine’s memory. \nClive Willman is a renowned Geologist specialising in mapping and structural geology since 1980 and combining film-making and geology since 2005. \nThis year’s lecture presented by Clive is the fascinating ‘Living Among the Mines. That’s cool but please stop poisoning the kids.’\nClive’s Living Amongst the Mines research explores the sights and sounds that the Leviny family experienced in the late 19th century. This artistic and cultured family\, more than any other household in Castlemaine\, were surrounded by the clanging and banging of mine machinery. Deep shafts were located just metres from their fence line\, and at times\, even the streets were mined. Amazingly they tolerated all this until Ernest Leviny drew the line when a sulphurous and smoke belching mineral processing plant\, just around the corner\, withered his precious garden and poisoned the kids. \nThe dinner includes a glass of bubbly on arrival followed by a delicious and seasonal three course winter meal. \nPlease let us know by email if you have dietary requirements. \nBOOK NOW\n[vc_row][vc_column width=’1/4′] \nCow on the Mullock heap \n[/vc_column][vc_column width=’1/4′][/vc_column][vc_column width=’1/4′][/vc_column][vc_column width=’1/4′][/vc_column][/vc_row] \n

Materials will be available if you don’t bring your own. \n    \nDuang Tengtrirat loves to cook and share her love of cooking. It is an experience of the heart\, mind and senses. \nWith the ever increasing challenges of our climate crisis\, Duang is passionate about keeping her footprint small and in minimising her carbon contribution to our atmosphere. \nAfter sixty years of fine tuning how to make food taste as good as it can be\, she concludes that good food comes from good ingredients. Nothing can be better than fresh\, local\, seasonal and\, whenever possible\, organic foods. \nInspiration often comes from fresh and seasonal produce as they are at their best. \nAs a child Duang wrapped her lunches to take to school. Of course the food was packed in a box\, then wrapped. The wrapping cloth works as a placemat and then a serviette!!!  \n\nCOVID safety \n\nThis workshop will take place in the Garden Room\, under Covid safe distancing requirements and strict limitation on numbers.\nSee our Covid Safe plan here \nShould we have to cancel the workshop due to Government changes relating to COVD-19\, we will let you know as soon as possible.
