Rose Street Artists Market 26 Mar 2011

another wonderful day at the market and made a lot of friends and met a lot of people

 

Mars Drum-Beyond the Burka

This show is rather interesting,
The Burka is a piece of fabric worn to protect women from men, and the artist, Mars Drum has painted here some very interesting situations and issues surrounding this modern controversy on an ancient tradition.

This Saturday we will be there!

We will be there again this Saturday, hopefully we should be undercovers, because it might be wet!

Lars Sternberg: 'Walking the Lanes' @ Space22

This is one show that impressed me. You can see the love of bushwalking. Lars has done it well. Loved it.

 

 

Scope2011 @ Post Office Gallery

Scope2011 at the university of Ballarat's gallery had some nice paintings I liked, especially the landscapes and the scuptures. Otherwise the show did not really impress me.

 

 

 

Helamen's take of Andy Warhol

Hindsight @ Red Brick Gallery

This month's exhibition had some impressive paintings such as the two below.

The upstairs main gallery is small but adequate enough to show of the paintings

The gallery courtyard at the back of the gallery's emporium is wonderful, beautiful gardens and seats. The gallery has come a long way with its emporium chocablok with art works.

I am delighted to have met the co-owner Steph. She is a very nice person and they run a good gallery, another of the wonderful art scene in Ballarat.

 

Rose Street Artists Market

 

Testing out the Rose Street Artists Market in Fitzroy, sold two paintings. Good prospect here. Lots of wares of all sorts from original designed jewelry to graphic designed tees, some paintings stalls. Good day spend talking to artists and customers.

Lunch anyone?

Marcia King-take a leap @ Space22

Helamen says, the jumps and leaping activities of the drawings were breathtaking. They convey the feeling of the art of Le Parkour, and the ideas expounded by Marcia was quite novel to me. I cannot do justice to her, without the lengthy quotes of her ideas of 'taking a leap',  or starting a new, so I refrain here. These few images will hopefully convey the feelings of her drawings and her concepts.

Helamen says impressive!

 

 

 

Michael Grant's Buna @ Post Office Gallery

Michael Grant's Buna paintings depicts the sensitive and emphathises with the fallen Aussie diggers at Pupua in the WWII, these paintings were for his Masters degree at the University of Ballarat. He travelled widely in Pupua for his research studies. Helamen says he likes the paintings although some of the faces depicting were a little horrifying for his taste.

Amy Devereux and Peader Thomas@Arthur

Helamen says, we went to Amy Devereux and Peader Thomas show @Arthur Gallery.

Peader does very detailed fine black ink on paper and compliments Amy's colourful watercolour collages. Good show, should get a lot of sales. Their collaborative and solo works were inspired by the movie "Lady Hawk" with Michelle Peiffer.
