Exhibition: currently showing

Dean Bowen is a highly acclaimed Australian artist, with a career spanning over 25 years.
We are privileged to present Pinnacle which will showcase Dean Bowen’s Lithographs, Etchings, Paintings and Bronze Sculpture, opening at Printmaker Gallery November 3rd 2016.
Bowen’s images have delighted and inspired us for decades, with their bold colours and highly imaginative characters and animal motifs set within the Australian environment. At its heart, his artwork explores  natural and habitual everyday life, an ever-evolving vehicle by which we consider the world and our place in it. The magic of Bowen’s images lies in their charisma, sensitivity and humour.

Strange to Behold Exhibition

A series of images that evoke the space between the ordinary and the uncanny.

There are unlikely encounters between animals, plants which curl and furl and scenarios encapsulated in jars. Some of these are playful imaginings whilst others touch on environmental concerns and anxieties we hold about changes in the natural world. Presented in part as a group of specimens to be looked at anew for clues they may hold.

Kyoko and Damon’s meticulously constructed etchings, draw us into a fantastical world of macabre humour, mystery and wonder.

BIG OBJECTS Kim Barter

Opening Thursday 7th April 6-8pm
Artist Talk Saturday 9th April 2pm

Goldfields artist Kim Barter has a deep engagement with her environment. In this new body of work she investigates the way in which we surround ourselves and identify with the objects that we select, gather and arrange.

With a focus on the ‘Chair’ Barter examines the visual, emotional and practical importance of these objects. Objects that carry story….’It is fascinating to imagine what role chairs or a chair may have played in a private or public place over generations.’

‘BIG OBJECTS’ combines mono prints with three-dimensional wall based works and artist books.
