George Diamandis


House of Bricks proudly and psychedelically presents
EXPOSITION
A series of original paintings and prints by
George Diamandis
Exposition is an engaged and meaningful series of works from Melbourne artist George Diamandis, flaring with intricacy and depth of spirit.
George forms style from nature, gripping its psychedelic underpinnings in cognitive shapes through the blending and arrangement of colour and illustration.
The result is a vision of works both broken and whole, confusing and disarmingly simple, with an inexplicable dose of true talent. Come check it out!
Opening Party Saturday 2nd Feb 2013 6-9pm
Exhibition Dates – 30.01.13 – 10.02.13

Drawing On Desire


"Drawing on Desire" is Melbourne artist Stacey Bennett's debut solo exhibition.

Love, heartache, infatuation, obsession - we've all been there, and "Drawing on Desire" is a tempestuous and evocative display of these emotions, engaging the viewer through traditionally rendered illustrations and contemporary type design.

"Drawing on Desire" encompasses a range of styles, mixed media, and applications that visually communicates concepts from the serious to the quirky, from light-hearted to soul searching.
Opening night is January 21, 2013, and the exhibition runs until January 26 at:
The Owl and the Pussycat Gallery,
34 Swan Street, Richmond
Free wine 7-8pm
Original artwork and prints for sale

Jesse Marlow Just don't tell them, show them!


If you only see one show this year, this is the one! It's not to be missed, Lantern Printing and Jesse Marlow worked together to create 13 pieces, the shots were captured on colour neg film... yes film, using his trusty Leica scanned and printed on Epson Premuim Lustre Photo Paper using HDR Pigment inks. He is the winner of the 2011 International Street Photography AwardJesse Marlow's next solo exhibition at Anna Pappas Gallery is the final instalment of his series, Don't Just Tell Them, Show Them which is based on his book featuring the whole series to be published in late 2012. The influence for this body of work includes architecture, painting and film with inspiration coming from the Australian Modernist painter Jeffrey Smart to French film director Jacques Tati. Contrived photo shoots and intricately designed set-ups have never interested jesse marlow, rather it is the uncertainty of street photography that continues to stimulate him.

Opening Night  Wednesday 18 April, 6.30pm, and then from 19 April - 26 May, 2012.

Botanica 2012 Exhibition


The Masters & Moore. A spectacular exhibition of contemporary botanical art display in the historic Maiden Theatre and Moore Room in the Royal Botanic Garden Sydney, including 10 Gold Medal winners from the Royal Horticultural Society Exhibitions in London.
Botanica is acknowledged as one of Australia’s leading botanical art exhibitions where many of the invited artists are highly regarded, both nationally and internationally.
All works are for sale (including a selection of unframed originals, prints and limited edition prints).
Friends of the Botanic Gardens is proud to have been involved since 1999 with the development and promotion of the work of professional and amateur botanical illustrators and artists, this Botanica being its twelfth exhibition.
In this exhibition there are 159 framed paintings selected from over 250 submitted. They represent the work of 86 artists from all states of Australia. The works were selected on the following basis: that they should accurately represent the form and botany of the chosen subject; they should adequately convey the characteristics of the species or variety; and they should be artistically pleasing, balanced and considered works of art. They must also be identified and named accurately according to standard botanical practices.
The final collection on display offered an outstanding opportunity to acquire works by talented emerging artists as well as those by artists with well-established national and international reputations. For some artists this was the first time they have exhibited at a major exhibition. We were delighted to be able to offer so many artists this opportunity to display their work.

Exhibition details

Please note that the exhibition is open all days over the Easter break.
When: 31 March - 22 April 2012, open daily 10 am - 4 pm
