Using lighting which is normally reserved for a film set, Stewart MacFarlane\u2019s paintings are dramatic, intense, and disarming as they force us to be voyeurs in the scenes he has created.<\/p>\n<p>Stewart MacFarlane is one of Australia\u2019s most prominent figurative painters. Using bold colours and dramatic lighting his mysterious paintings are a surreal look at the convoluted intricacies of human relationships, set against a backdrop of familiar Australian cityscapes and landscapes. An accomplished artist, he has held over 50 solo exhibitions of his work in Australia, the United States, Asia and Germany. In 1996, Craftsman House published the monograph Stewart MacFarlane, Riddles of Life, by Veronique Helmridge-Marsillian.<\/p>\n<p>He has also been honoured with countless international awards and residencies, including a fellowship from MacDowell Colony, New Hampshire, USA and residencies in Besozzo Studio, Italy, the Bemis Centre for Contemporary Arts, Omaha, Nebraska USA and at Roswell, New Mexico, USA with the Roswell Museum &amp; Art Centre. Within Australia he has taken part in various residencies in universities around Australia and was the winner of the Alice Prize from the Alice Springs Art Foundation.<\/p>\n<p>As one of Australia\u2019s most outstanding contemporary artists MacFarlane\u2019s works have been extensively collected and can be seen in all major state and university galleries throughout Australia. The most notable of these are the Australian National Gallery, the National Gallery of Victoria, Queensland Art Gallery, Monash University and Curtin University. On an international level his works can be found in the permanent collections of Shell and the Provincetown Museum and Art Centre of Massachusetts, USA.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">About Wei-Ling Gallery<\/span><br \/>\nWei-Ling Gallery is housed in an award-winning building in the historic area of Brickfields, Kuala Lumpur.
