Biography: James Lennon

Biography: James Tarrant Lennon is born in Tamworth Australia in 1976. He is a self taught artist whose denial to be confined within the limits of conventional art teachings and practice, has helped him liberate ideas on the canvas like a rebellious singer of the psychedelic 60s. In a recent interview, James says “I have an overwhelming desire to use visual expression as a universal language to share my personal experiences, temptations and curiosities”. For him “art captures a moment in time” on his journey through life. His artistic philosophy is much reminiscent of the musings of an iconic song called Trouble with the Classicists by John Cale:

“I like the druggy downtown kids who spray paint walls and trains/I like their lack of training, their primitive technique/
I think sometimes it hurts you when you stay too long in school/
I think sometimes it hurts you when you're afraid to be called a fool

 EXHIBITION

WELCOME to the ArtVantage e-Visual Space

The ArtVantage Manifesto

1. We believe that the newest media can support and enhance the oldest, most sophisticated of art forms.

2. We believe that art can only be truly appreciated within a sympathetic, real visual space where you can see and experience the colour, texture and ambition of the artist.

3. We believe, however, we can provide an alternative, virtual platform for the most innovative and thought-provoking art - a valid, if surrogate, experience

4. We believe the web provides an opportunity for an artist to reach out to a far wider audience - to inform and to excite and, in turn, for the audience to grasp and explore the motivation of the artist

5. We believe that all arts are highly interactive and interrelated, there is intertextuality everywhere, there is correspondence in everything, and without this no art lives for a moment to tease us out of thought.

6. We believe that art can go a long way to foster relationships between countries and between cultural communities to create a natural environment for the flourishing of sustainable cultural industries based on the knowledge economy.
