  Adam Cullen: Pure Sanctimony - Reviews - www.theage.com.au
Cullen, alongside Mikala Dwyer and Hany Armanious, emerged in the 1990s as part of Sydney's so-called grunge movement, in which works created from detritus and rendered with deliberate crudeness became the vogue.
Of the three, Cullen became the painter and his canvases have typically become basic fields of simple colour populated by macabre characters, paint dripping from their extremities in a visceral flow of perpetual decomposition.
Added to Cullen's painterly language is a cultural melange of influences - hints of Japanese manga, Antipodean cliche (kangaroos are a favourite), and Irish leprechauns.

Adam Cullen, artist: I don't think that you should really think that long or sort of that hard about what one ought to do or what one ought not do.
But in Adam Cullen's case some are not as convinced that the relationship is in his long-term best interests and he has been counselled to keep a more professional distance.
Adam Cullen: Of course you are going to evolve into a person who is at war with the world and I don't think that's Mark's fault.

 Flash : 2 Cents - The Physics Room
Adam Cullen is speaking in tongues, in a language that is on the tip of our own.
In the case of Adam Cullen the answer is excess - to push out the envelope, to try to take things too far, to concentrate this visual flotsam and context, of itself or through manipulation, shows a different meaning and brings to the surface subtexts, hidden agendas, and at times, small chaotic evils.
Cullen's work, from the spray painted texts, familiar from the walls and fences of suburbia, to his enlarged telephone pad appointment dates long gone, and his spreadsheets from some parallel universe, presents us with the visual substructure of our lives and to a large extent, the means of our education.

Adam deliberately chose a low viewpoint to emphasise the height of the single span bridge, built by his father in 1744.
Adam described the chief details in pen and ink and used grey washes to define volume, space and atmospheric light.

 Sunday Morning - The Maker: Adam Cullen -06/03/2005
This week's Maker is the Australian bad boy of painting, Adam Cullen, whose raw, often humorous, often shocking images of dead cats, headless women and punk men represent what he calls 'Loserville'.
Cullen’s graffiti-like style became nationally famous with his portrait of actor David Wenham in the film The Boys, loosely based on the Anita Coby murder.
But Cullen is now established to the extent that Craftsman House have published a monograph, in which Ingrid Periz traces the artist’s development from an art school performance, when he chained a rotting pig’s head to his leg, to Cullen’s recent, slightly more dignified portraits of men.

DAVID GERGEN: Cullen, in your new book, you emphasize that women are not only having an enormous influence upon the pulpits of American churches but they're beginning to have a terrific influence also upon biblical interpretation.
So that's the first issue, and the second issue is the one of woman being endowed with the responsibility for the so-called fall from grace because it is she who first eats of the forbidden fruit.

 Adam Cullen Information
Adam Cullen (1965-), Australian artist, most known for winning the Archibald Prize in 2000 with a portrait of actor David Wenham.
He received a Bachelor of Arts in 1986, and a Master of Fine Arts from the UNSW in 1999.
Cullen argued that artists have the right to control how their images are used and asked that a fee of $67,500 be paid to him for them using it in this way, though it was negotiated that he would be paid $80 for it instead.

 Adam Smith, Behavioral Economist? — HBS Working Knowledge
Adam Smith is best known for The Wealth of Nations, but professor Nava Ashraf believes another of his works, The Theory of Moral Sentiments, presaged contemporary behavioral economics.
In "Adam Smith, Behavioral Economist," published in the summer 2005 edition of The Journal of Economic Perspectives, the authors find that Smith's insights from 1759 can contribute to modern thinking on everything from our fascination with celebrity to the theory of loss aversion.
One of the most unexplored areas, which we are only now beginning to be able to measure, is the degree to which people are motivated by the "aerial coin of praise" and social status, something Smith thought was a crucial motivation for economic activity.

Unbeknown to Rush, Cullen had been sketching the Oscar winner for years attracted by his sad eyes and a magnificent proboscis.

According to Adam Cullen it is approaching the same arcane status as painting.
Working with video relates to Cullen’s continued exploration with painting – where he is more interested in process than finish – and is prepared to debase its expectations of technical virtuosity.
Rather than pushing video to the edge of its capacities Cullen highlighs the medium's relation to painting and photography, at the same time cancelling out any narrative and visual unfolding.

Waterford, at national level, is currently politically divided as follows: 2 FF members (Martin Cullen and Ollie Wilkinson), 1 FG (John Deasy) and 1 Lab (Brian O’Shea).
The two candidates who are safely expected to maintain their seats are Martin Cullen and John Deasy.
However, given the realistic chances of the 30th Dáil being formed by an opposition coalition, I very much doubt Martin Cullen’s ability to offer anything to the Waterford people other than more of the controversy that we’ve grown so accustomed to over the past 5 years.

Early in his career, Adam Cullen became renowned as an enfant terrible in the Australian art world.
He was well established as a Sydney 'grunge' artist when he won the prestigious Archibald Prize for his portrait of actor David Wenham in 2000, raising hackles amongst the more conservative members of the Australian art world.
But regardless of the bad boy posturings, there is also an extraordinary sense of both humour and pathos about Cullen's work.

 Rae, Life of Adam Smith, Chapter 21: Library of Economics and Liberty
If it was to Edinburgh, as Gibbon remarks, that "taste and philosophy seemed to have retired from the smoke and hurry of the immense capital of London," it was in the ancient smoke and leisure of the Canongate they found their sanctuary.
William Windham, the statesman, who dined in it repeatedly when he was in Edinburgh with Burke in 1785, thought it a very stately house indeed for a philosopher.
Swediaur, the Paris physician, who spent some time in Edinburgh in 1784 making researches along with Cullen, and was made a member of this club during his stay, writes Jeremy Bentham: "We have a club here which consists of nothing but philosophers.

But modernism and other over-simplifications aside, it is Cullen's amateurexorcism, his something-from-nothing Australian shamanry, Mars Bar dreaming, and insistence on the impossibility of transcendence (are you happy up there in the sky?) that makes it conceptually sound for now.

 All eyes on the prize
This year was no exception, with Adam Cullen’s portrait of Seachange actor David Wenhan turning some culture vultures apoplectic, despite the subject matter’s obvious popularity with the public.
Cullen’s haunting work was made just as the actor had finished the harrowing movie The Boys, and captures the dark complexity and chameleon-like nature of an actor in a deceptively naive style.
But don’t take our word for it, the likes of Ken Done, Geoffrey Rush, The Sandman (complete with his ‘little friend’ hanging out) and 7.30 host Kerry O’Brien, along with more than a dozen other large works, are currently on show at the Lismore Regional Art Gallery until November 27.

While Cullen’s and Boswell’s accounts were not published until later centuries, Smith’s appeared a half-year after Hume’s death and sparked instant controversy.
Third, it is not clear, however, whether the anguish she perceived was the result of Hume’s reflections on an afterlife, his possible declining mental state, or his suffering from a terminal illness.
Adam Smith was not the only one who wrote a eulogy of Hume, and others that did typically met with harsh reception.
