Imron paintings from 11-17 September. Drinks with the artists Tuesday 12th September 6pm. All welcome!

Imron was born in Banyuwangi in East Java and now lives in Sydney. This is his first solo exhibition. He brings a boldness of colour and form that draws you into the experience that is before you. He allows the intuitive nature to emerge onto the canvas until it is finally apparent. Hie uses a self taught experience of plastering and scraping technique with palate knife and the pouring of mixed media, which takes it’s own shape, time and time again until it is apparent.

The official opening is on Tuesday 12th from 6-9pm and there is a drinks afternoon on Saturday 16th from 4-6pm

Roger Dilernia Photographic Exhibition + Alice Hattom paintings September 4th -10th 2017 Opening drinks Tuesday 5th Sept 6pm.

 

Photographic Exhibition takes us back to the Golden age of Rock

September 4th -10th 2017, Sydney

Rock photographer and co-author of The Beatles Down Under Roger Dilernia is about to show for the first time his unseen colour rock photography from the gold age of rock the 70’s.

This is a once in a life time opportunity to see such legends as David Bowie , Lou Reed, Bob Marley & Queen with photos of AC/DC, INXS early in their career. The works include published black and white works and for the first time full colour images that have never been seen.

Dilernia has worked as a photographer and rock historian since 1974, capturing images that have graced many record covers, posters and publications. A pioneer on the 70s punk scene in Australia, Dilernia was also a musician in one of Sydney’s first punk bands ‘Doris Death’, brushing shoulders with artists such as Mick Jagger, Lou Reed, Frank Zappa, and Paul McCartney.

Why now, after forty years a few months ago I had a major health scare which reminded me that life’s short and that my photos needed to be seen. The moments of rock n roll History I’ve been lucky enough to capture deserve a wider audience than my friends and family

Roger Rock Legends exhibition will be running from the 4th of September till the tenth at The Tap Gallery 259 Riley St Surry Hill.

Alice Hattom Exhibition ‘WHY NOT!’ on display at the TAP 4 – 10 September, Opening Tuesday 5 September 6-8pm

Alice Hattom expressing a new age in expressionism

September 4th -10th 2017, Sydney

Sydney Expressionist’s artist Alice Hattom is having her first exhibition in Sydney and it is hitting like a summer storm in September this year, having recently returned from Venice Italy were her daughter Nadine Hattom was invited to present her works at the 57th Venice Biennale.

Born as a Mandaean in Iraq and being suppressed as a minority and as a woman in a man dominant culture, has left its impression on Alice. She has a lot of supressed emotions about social justice and fairness which you can see in her Art, you can see the releasing of these emotions in vibrant colours, and using a method of painting that has no restrictions, helps her in expressing the freedom she has longed for as a child. Mandaeans are a minority sect that has settled around the rivers of Iraq so they can continue to baptise for over 2000 years.

Artistic experimentation runs deep in the Artist’s family. Alice has an unconventional way of expressing and it shows clearly in her work of Art. Living and traveling to different parts of the world has expanded her unique and creative outlook on life in general and more so in the way she expresses and portrays unprecedented visual images of the environment and culture.

Alice Hatton Exhibition WHY NOT! will be running from the 4th of September till the tenth at The Tap Gallery 259 Riley St Surry Hill.
