Resume

Jane Guthleben is an exhibiting artist with a fascination for Dutch still life painting and how to reimagine it in an Australian context.

Through floral arrangements, studies of birds and flowers, and groupings of ornaments, she aims to build on Dutch traditions with antipodean subject matter. Her recent series of paintings has focused on first European contact with Australia, and the earliest recordings of its flora and fauna. Some of Guthleben’s arrangements are region specific, including flora endemic to certain geographic areas.

Guthleben has a Bachelor of Fine Arts (Honours) from the University of New South Wales. She has been a finalist in numerous prizes including recently the Archibald Prize, Portia Geach, Mosman Art Prize, Archibald Prize Salon des Refuses and the Ravenswood Art Prize.
