While I’d normally put this in a calendar post (which will be published tomorrow anyway!), I thought I’d make special mention of an exhibition at Keeper Gallery at Gaffa (Sydney): “TOUCH. PAUSE. ENGAGE.”
Exhibition media: “Touch, Pause, Engage is an introductory snapshot of contemporary NZ jewellery for the Australian community. This innovative jewellery showcase is designed to reset the trans-Tasman rivalry between our rugby-loving brothers and sisters. Touch, Pause, Engage, invites a diverse team of fifteen NZ jewellers to submit inventive and inspired works. Although many of the makers’ practices focus on different issues and are expressed in diverse forms, the side is fit and game ready. The roster is comprised of talented individuals with different skills and strengths who make a target of pushing the experimental aspects of their jewellery practice.”
Artists include: Rachel Bell, Renee Bevan, Nadene Carr, Jacqui Chan, Kristin D’Agostino, Cath Dearsley, Gillian Deery, Ilse-Marie Erl, Sharon Fitness, Kristin Toller, Tatjana Panyoczki, Suni Gibson, Lynsay Raine, Raewyn Walsh, Selina Woulfe. The exhibition has its own site too.
Opening Reception Thursday 21st October 6-8pm + the release of an accompanying publication; exhibition Dates 22nd October – 2nd November 2010
