About Ian David Gardiner
Ian Gardiner (1943–2008) was a Melbourne-based artist whose practice ranged from screen printing, linocuts and photographs through to woodblock prints, monoprint, collage and montage and returned to painting late in his career. He spent four years at Swinburne Technical College in Hawthorn, Victoria, graduating in 1964 with a Certificate and Diploma of Art. From 1971 he and his wife lived in Japan where he worked, studied and taught. On his return to Melbourne in 1974 he taught at secondary and tertiary level. Gardiner held seven solo shows throughout his life, the first in 1983 and participated in group exhibitions both in Australia and abroad. His prints are held in the collections of the Museum of Modern Art, New York, Nantenshi Gallery, Japan, National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne, National Gallery of Australia, Canberra, Victoria and Albert Museum, Tasmania, and other galleries throughout Australia.[2] Gardiner was a participant in the formative years of the Australian Print Council and a lecturer at Melbourne TAFE Colleges for 20 years.
