and exhibitions, within Australia and world wide.

The latest issue of
Australian Art
Collector features an article on Dianne Tanzer and Edwina Bolger,
co-directors of Dianne Tanzer Gallery + Projects. Writer Carrie Miller
interviews Dianne and Edwina about life running an innovative commercial
gallery in Melbourne.
Carrie Miller also presents the upcoming exhibition highlights at Dianne
Tanzer Gallery + Projects in 2012, featuring Michael Cook, Juan Ford,
Victoria Reichelt and Owen Leong:
"Owen Leong is the latest addition to Dianne Tanzer Gallery + Projects'
stable. Leong is a multimedia artist whose practice dissolves the false
dichotomy between the authentic and the performative aspects of the self
in order to explore the way in which the body and identity are not natural,
pre-given things in the world but rather cultural, social and political
categories. The work occupies a compelling zone of ambiguity"
