JulyArt Exhibition Friday, 3 July 2009 5:00 PM
An Exhibition of Paintings by Julia Francis. "This exhibition continues my exploration of ‘brushless painting’. As with all of my work, nature is the primal inspiration, its ever changing light, shade and colours offer me an endless source of material to work with. The painting process develops organically mirroring the way the landscape regenerates and rewrites itself. This is seen in the paintings through a weaving of calligraphic marks against the grid. This juxtaposition represents the chaotic within organized systems. For this exhibition many of the works specifically focus on the way nature often repeats its motifs and forms in a multitude of intriguing ways." OPENING: Friday 3rd July at 5pm. Please join us for drinks with the artist. EXHIBITION: Continues until Sunday 19th July, 10am till 4pm. For more information about the Wollombi Cultural Centre >>>

Art Exhibition Friday, 7 August 2009 5:00 PM
An Exhibition by Marek Zayler. "I have been creatively engaged for the last 25 plus years. Working in charcoal on newsprint then acrylic on paper graduating to canvas, and finally oils about six years ago. It soon became obvious that there were themes emerging. Faces and human body shapes intrigued me. It became apparent that I was painting about restriction. I am in a wheelchair so that made sense and gave me a very particular perspective about life around me."
EXHIBITION: Friday 7th August until Sunday 23rd August. For more information about the Wollombi Cultural Centre >>>
