Belinda Jackson, a creative jewellery designer of unique talent, passed away at a tender age of 29. Her life may have ended way too early, but the memory of her continues to live on.
As a way of commemorating Belinda’s artistic achievements, Primavera will be presenting its 19th annual exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art (MCA) in Sydney. Founded by the MCA, Dr Edward Jackson AM and Mrs Cynthia Jackson AM and the rest of Belinda’s family, the exhibition is a celebration that gives rise to emerging Australian artists who are of 35 years and under.
Primavera invites Katie Dyer, Curator of the National Art School, Sydney, as this year’s Guest Curator. With creativity and individuality being the common language, Katie’s selection highlights a collective range of wily imaginative work by young budding artists. If Belinda were here, she would have been proud of these young lads.
Get set for Primavera opening this Thursday, August 19 through to November 11. The exhibition is part of the MCA Spring Season 2010, and is located on level 1 and 2 of the museum.
