ANTHONY BROWELL
Anthony Browell, has an impressive history as an editorial, advertising and exhibiting photographer. His extensive client
base has included Vogue, The Times [London], Bankers Trust, AMP, Qantas and Pacific Dunlop, many architects, designers, and
design magazines.
Anthony has never lost his initial passion for the photographic image and still continues to pursue his personal work.
During the DFB05 we were honoured to have Anthony as part of the main programme, where he exhibited to series 'The Waterfront'
and 'Obscura- The Laws of Chance'. 'Waterfront' illustrated the strength, purpose and inherent beauty of Sydney's industrial
waterfront buildings, which were being removed to make way for apartments.
Obscura used a simple pinhole camera to record the landscape with deliciously rich, seductive imagery.
This lensless photography has continued vigorously, and Anthony was subsequently the subject of an hour long interview
on ABC FM where he discussed his philosophy and the processes involved in this work. In this seminar he conveys to us his
dedication to the tradition and beauty of the black and white image, as well as to the importance of simplicity in making
images.

LLOYD GODMAN
Since 1983, Lloyd Godman has had 36 solo exhibitions, and more than 200 group exhibitions, across 18 countries. He established
the photo section at the Otago School of Art, where he was head from 1986 - 2005 He now lives in Melbourne where he concentrates
on his personal practice.
Light is the essential ingredient of all photography. This seminar
presents a personal journey where light and photography intersect in a
continuing intricate web. From traditional photography, photograms,
alternative processes, through photosynthesis, self developing
photographic installations and interactive projection works, it explores
how the fundamental concept of photography can not only produce images of great power but offer other media a fertile
source for creative work
'Lloyd Godman's twin careers of serious and successful organic gardener and practicing artist of great creative energy
converge in new and constantly surprising ways to make art about the ecological concerns that underly his gardening. Over
almost three decades his art has widened out from relatively traditional landscape photography to include elements of performance,
audience participation art and multimedia installation to explore the tensions between electronic consumer society and the
ecosystem.' - Artlink Magazine
....the largest photosensitive emulsion we know of is the planet earth. As vegetation grows, dies back, changes colour
with the seasons, the 'photographic image' that is our planet alters. Increasingly human intervention plays a larger role
in transforming the image of the globe we inhabit. - Lloyd Godman 2006
