A Matter of Looking: Clement Meadmore film


If you are a regular reader of the Australian Modern blog, you will already
be familiar with the name Clement Meadmore. Whether you are a fan of
his furniture or his iconic twisting metal sculptures, it’s hard to ignore the
unique talent of Clement Meadmore, nor his important place in our art history.
Although Meadmore achieved international success and is represented in
galleries across the world, it would appear that he has received very little
acknowledgement in his country of birth, Australia.

Luckily for us, Sydney based filmmakers Amanda King and Fabio Cavadini of
Frontyard Films are about to put that all right. A Matter of Looking  is currently
in production and will focus on Meadmore’s work as a sculptor. News is that
they are currently conducting interviews and documenting Meadmore works.

The film is an important project, but like all independent films, it is heavily reliant
on funding.  So get behind the film and lend your support with a donation and help
to turn this fantastic project into a reality.
