Margaret Throsby interview with Tony Mott

This morning on ABC Classic FM leading Australian broadcaster Margaret Throsby interviewed Tony Mott about his exhibition at artisan and his recent publication. Tony even got to pick a range of music to be played - it's a hard life!

Listen to the interview.

And now.....



Remember that crazily deep comment about Tex Perkins we posted awhile ago? Well this is all the responses so far!



Don't forget to check out the show and add your own comments before the show finishes on Saturday.

Tex Perkins by Tony Mott

For all those Tex Perkins fans out there, it's time to hurry on down to gallery artisan and check out Tony Mott's works - there's more than a few shots of Tex Perkins and best thing is they're for sale! If you absolutely can't make it in, or have been pondering a purchase since your visit then the good news is Tony Mott's photos are available from our online store, so you can browse from the comfort of your own home.

Below is one of our favourite comments so far, somewhat mystical, somewhat philosophical, very entertaining!
