NICK WATERLOW (1941- 2009)
CIMAM joins with Australia´s art community in extending our deepest sympathies to Nick and Chloe Waterlow\\\\\\\'s families and friends.
Nick Waterlow - director of the Ivan Dougherty Gallery in Paddington, New South Wales, and a much loved and respected member of CIMAM - and his daughter Chloe Waterlow died November 9 of stab wounds inside Waterlow’s home. A two-year-old girl was also discovered with wounds to her throat. She remains in the hospital in serious condition.
Nick was a leading member of Australia\\\\\\\'s arts community, having curated three Sydney Biennales. He has been Director of the Ivan Dougherty Gallery since 1991 and was a senior lecturer in COFA´s School of Art History and Art Education. His current projects included a book exploring the place of Australian art internationally and he was of course closely involved in the planning for COFA´s new art museum.
At the end of this month, Ivan Dougherty Gallery will close its doors after 32 years as one of Australia´s leading public art galleries to accommodate an extensive redevelopment of the College of Fine Arts (COFA) campus, which includes construction of a major new museum.
Nick will be greatly missed by his colleagues at CIMAM and many friends and supporters in the arts community.
