The Devil is in the Detail at Dark Mofo

July 4, 2018 by Jackie Hawkins

Dark. Mysterious. Stimulating. Confronting. Tragic. Dark Mofo in Hobart, Tasmania, is all of these and more. The best thing happening right now, culturally, anywhere, as far as I am concerned. Art, music, theatre, immersive ‘experiences’, it’s all there without really being ‘there’ at all. It’s magnificent and beguiling in its scale, style and substance, but you’ve […]

Chris Bangle wows at State of Design, Melbourne

July 20, 2010 by Jackie Hawkins

Chris Bangle. Ex-Design Director of BMW. What a thinker. Listening to him is a bit like holding your breath underwater in the bath; it tends to focus you on just one thing. In this case, the power to think differently about how we move about on our planet, to escape the rigid confines of your […]

July 16, 2010 by Jackie Hawkins

My new article in Australian Creative out now!

March 29, 2010 by Jackie Hawkins

Australian Show Misses the Mark

March 3, 2010 by Jackie Hawkins

Sarah King, the curator of the Australian Design Museum Show currently on view at the Shapiro Gallery in Sydney, should be congratulated on her efforts to promote the industry and elevate the profile of many of the talented Australian designers we have here, working largely unsupported by national or state government. However, in my personal […]

London Calling_AusCreative_Feb-Mar10_pgs26-28_LR Australians excel in many fields overseas, and design is no different.
