Julian Dashper was a supremely talented and much-loved artist. Last night (a week before the anniversary of his death) the Gus Fisher Gallery opened an exhibition of his work that explores some critical strands to his practice, while also sharing some of his lesser known gems. Curated by Ariane Craig-Smith, Julian Dashper: Professional Practice is a must-see exhibition that runs to 28 August 2010.
