The Mary and Anne Show Anne Hill and Mem Bourke grew up in Mangere East in the 1970's dreaming of being stars of their own show. Anne's small mixed media drawings on Bathroom Tiles are exhibited alongside Mem Bourke's photographs of her Body art. Growing up with big dreams and imaginations, and no viable means of making them come true, they relied on each other and their childhood imaginations to keep the idea of 'being' artists alive. This is a small hamage, exposing some of that journey and dedicated to those dreams...

Chlorophyll
29 August - 11
September 2011 In the Becroft Gallery
Showing from August 29 to 11 September
2011, this exhibition tells the first
moments of spring - the smell of newly mown
lawns and snowdrops. The time before cicadas
hum and hills turn to scorched earth. Spring
holds the promise of lazy days and gentle
nights surrounded by chlorophyll. Treasures on show include Isaac Katsoff’s jewel-like glassforms, Kari Lindsay-Beale’s sculptural Orchids (shown above) and Peter Viesnik’s lustrous dichroic glass. Isla Osborne’s work presents a glimpse of an extraordinary microscopic world, while Frances Hanson shows eminently wearable glass and silver jewellery. These miniature works of art are interestingly juxtaposed against husband John’s cast glass sculptures. Fiona Rennie-Schwieters’ organic sculpture almost seems to grow as you view it, while Karin Barr’s row of stem-like columns fit wood and stone a perfectly against smooth cast glass. Perhaps the most intricate works in the exhibition are Stephen Bradbourne’s beautifully textured vessels (shown above). In these pieces, he composes then fuses flat sheets of pattern before rolling and blowing the glass.

Glimpses by Garage Artists 16 - 28 August 2011 In the Becroft Gallery
Garage Artists are a group of artists who
meet on a weekly basis to paint together,
discuss work and share ideas. The group consists of 14 women, some accomplished artists who have been painting for a long time while others are quite new to expressing themselves in a visual media. The group is facilitated by Lib Steward and have been meeting in her Garage/Studio on the North Shore for the past 5 years. The aim of the group is to share their ideas and creative interests, but to grow as individual artists, each pursuing their own direction, subject matter and medium.
"Glimpses" is an exhibition giving the
viewers a glimpse into the work of each
artist while also providing the artists with
a subject matter of a glimpse .
