These beautiful objects will appeal as gifts or aesthetic additions to any home.

NEXT SHOW:

Tony Ameneiro
File Under Life

Opening event
Saturday 10th October at 12 midday
Exhibition continues through to December

This is the third solo show at the gallery for artist Tony Ameneiro, whose reputation as an award-winning artist is based on a comprehensive body of work held in public collections both in Australia and abroad.

The title ‘File Under Life’ refers to the artist’s commitment to his life drawing practice, resulting in hundreds of exquisite renderings of the human form over many years. In this show however, he combines versions of these drawings utilising a printmaker’s technique of incising images onto a flat surface.

The uniqueness of these artworks lies in his choice of material. As a musician, Tony has a love of the keyboard, so when his old piano became too old to play, he decided to break down the instrument and repurpose the ivory keys. In this way the drawings have become almost like scrimshaw, being scratched into the ivory surface and embellished with subtle tones of monochromatic black ink.
