Abdul Abdullah is one of Australia's leading artists and we were lucky enough to meet and interview him at his studio in St. Leonards, shortly before he moves to Bangkok, Thailand. 'Abdul Abdullah is an Australian multi-disciplinary artist. As a self-described ‘outsider amongst outsiders' with a post-9/11 mindset, his practice is primarily concerned with the experience of the ‘other'. Abdullah's projects have engaged with different marginalized minority groups and he is particularly interested in the disjuncture between perception/projection of identity and the reality of lived experience. Identifying as a Muslim and having both Malay/Indonesian and convict/settler Australian heritage, Abdullah occupies a precarious space in the political discourse that puts him at odds with popular definitions. He sees himself as an artist working in the peripheries of a peripheral city, in a peripheral country, orbiting a world on the brink. His work has been censored by politicians who have accused him of attacking Australian culture, and once a member of the Christian Democratic party wrote that he wants to “convert young Australians” and that he “worships a moon god”.'Abdul is represented at Yavuz Gallery, Sydney, and internationally. Thanks, Abdul for your time, we really appreciate it. 

Abdul Abdullah is an Aussie artist who's fascinated by the concept of being an outsider, something he identifies with personally.  Abdul Is a 7th generation Australian-Muslim with Indonesian and Malay heritage. He's a man who can't be put into a box by any one definition.   Working across portraiture, photography and painting, Abdul vividly expresses the experience of growing up Muslim in Australia in the post 9/11 era, confronting the prejudices that've marginalised Muslim youth.  His provocative art has struck a cord around the world and even been censored by politicians, who've accused him of attacking culture.  Abdul's part of a the new ABC TV series, Space 22, which explores art therapy as a means of improving mental wellbeing.   A picture paints a thousand words and Abdul's got a lot to say...

Abdul Abdullah is an Australian multi-disciplinary artist. His practice is primarily concerned with the experience of the 'other'. Abdullah's projects have engaged with different marginalised minority groups and he is particularly interested in the disjuncture between perception and reality. On this episode Julius and Abdul discuss his career and work so far.

Multi-disciplinary artists David Capra and Abdul Abdullah return to Canvas in this reunion episode. They chat about what they've been up to during the COVID-19 pandemic, graduating from the 'art school fantasy' and reconciling the intimate and commercial aspects of creating work. Abdul shares his formative experiences of art education and the influence of politics and identity on his practice.

Approximately 50 St. Louis families lose their homes to tax foreclosure each year, even though they owe on average just a few thousand dollars. Abdul Abdullah talks about a new fund that aims to help those families stay in their homes and keep the tax collector at bay.

Abdul Abdullah is an artist from Perth, Australia, five-time finalist for the Archibald - the famous Australian portrait competition, and the recipient of many other awards and recognitions for his provocative artworks about race, racism, introspection and identity. In this interview Abdul shares his story about growing up in Perth, engaging in some kinds of juvenile delinquency, being raised in humble beginnings but with the consistent support of his family, going to art school and being willing to experiment with his art. A key challenge came to Abdullah when he submitted a portrait to the Archibald prize. He met Muslim Australian author and academic Waleed Aly, painted his portrait and became a finalist in the national competition for the first time. To Abdullah's surprise, he started receiving hate mail, a dozen letters a day. Apparently these people hated Abdul just because of his new mentor's politics, and because of his name. It was then that Abdul had to decide - would he stay angry, or would he transmute his anger into something positive, through his art?

Muslim Australian artist Abdul Abdullah was a teenager in Perth when 9/11 occurred. Abdul recalls the backlash and racism his community encountered in the wake of 9/11, and its role in shaping his identity today.

Award-winning journalist Stan Grant takes us through the world on September 10, 2001. After the collapse of the World Trade Centre on 9/11 what fractures appeared across the Islamic world, and how did the terrorist attack turbo-charge nationalism in Europe and the U.S.? Then we hear from artist Abdul Abdullah on how the events of 9/11 shaped his identity as a Muslim in Australia.

With the 2021 Archibald Prize right around the corner, The Betoota Advocate editors interview five-time finalist Abdul Abdullah. From his unconventional artist beginnings as a Muslim kid raised in a Perth boxing gym, to his recent clashes with redneck councilors demanding his paintings be taken off the walls in Mackay Regional Gallery - Abdul's attitude, style and approach to painting is not what we usually associate with the arancini balls and complimentary champagne of the Australian art world.

Abdul Abdullah is a Sydney based multidisciplinary visual artist. His work offers a political commentary on social issues such as war, racism and cultural identity for a Muslim in a post 9/11 world. https://abdulabdullah.com/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ZmZSEjPonA Instagram: @abdul_abdullah

An edited version of this episode is also a video which you can see here: When I started this podcast in July 2016 with no knowledge of audio recording - let alone how to start a podcast - I never imagined that four years later I would have interviewed close to a hundred painters, as well as curators and authors, and have a YouTube channel with over 100 videos filmed on my iPhone. Building up this podcast would not have been possible, though, without the encouragement of those close to me and the time and generosity of my guests as well as many others' support in the wonderful Australian arts community. It has also been a privilege to get to know so many of you listeners either through messages, comments on social media or meeting you in person. Even if we haven't had any contact, you are the reason I keep doing the show so thank you for listening. I couldn't think of a better place to celebrate the centenary episode than the Art Gallery of NSW where about a quarter of my podcast guests are finalists in the Archibald, Wynne and Sulman Prizes. So I'd like to say a big thankyou to the Art Gallery of NSW who allowed me in with my selfie stick to film and speak in front of these works.  You can listen to this episode as an audio guide if you are at the gallery (scroll down for a map of where the works are), watch the edited version as a video here or just listen as an audio episode - all the works are reproduced below.

Our guest today is the Australian artist Abdul Abdullah. His interdisciplinary approach is primarily concerned with the experience of the ‘other' in society. This, and the wider topic of prejudice will be the focus of our conversation today. In the youtube version, there is also a slideshow of Abdul's work.

Abdul Abdullah is a four time Archibald finalist and this year he has paintings hanging in both the Archibald and Sulman prizes in the Art Gallery of NSW. He has won several art prizes including the Blake Prize for Human Justice in 2011 and has been finalist in many others. Abdul's art delivers a strong message. Issues of identity and the current political environment concerning  the Muslim community in Australia are front and foremost in his work. We talk about how he sees 9/11 impacted the Muslim community and how after that event 'it became apparent that in the popular imagination Muslims in Australia had become the 'bad guys''.  We also talk about the 2005 Cronulla riots and how he came about painting retired police officer Craig Campbell for the Archibald. He also gives insights into his painting process and photographic art. Abdul's work is currently included in four shows in Victoria and NSW with another three coming up over the next few weeks, including a solo show in Melbourne in November.
