Bernadette Curtin: 'Forecast'
15th of October to 6th of November 2010
Since moving to Byron Bay four years ago, Bernadette Curtin has extended previous themes begun in Melbourne.
In her new series , she painted directly from observations of the changing and dramatic weather patterns of our area. The title chosen, Forecast, also refers to the times we are now experiencing, as if the paintings were not only about her present environment but, in a wider context, sounding out the future.
”The paintings are my responses to this lush environment, says Bernie, and the water cycle is a continuing theme in them. I enjoy rendering water in all its forms –the translucency of raindrops, the ephemeral nature of clouds, the flow of rivers and ocean tides. Weather and the incredible downpours of rain, storms with their amazing cloud formations and dramatic lighting effects that we enjoy here are recorded through different seasons."
Forecast was opened by Candida Baker, director of the Writers Festival and run until November 6th.

Sheri Piccone: T...RUST - finding inspiration beneath the surface, amongst the rust and remnants,
Solo Exhibition 26/02/10 to 20/03/10
With impetus drawn from the Art Postcards that she entered into last year's "Wish You Were Here" exhibition at Waywood Gallery, Sheri has created a whole body of work for her first solo exhibition.
Allowing the found objects and other fragments to relate their stories through her, whilst simultaneously building new narratives for the viewer.Inspired by life and it's unfolding journeys, the artwork of Sheri Piccone talks about letting go of the past and surrendering to the now, of memories that fade, tatter and rust and of how, when one doorway closes, another opens. Insights drawn from books, music and life are tools of salvation. Scattered through the works these fragments represent keys to transformation, treasures of the heart and freedom from the mind. The works are inspired by love and trust.... lost, found and that which just is.
The artworks combine found objects, altered books, symbols, materials, images and text juxtaposed to create a series of memorable collages and assemblages in the exhibition titled “t...rust”.
Photographers: Jeff Dawson, Peter Gibney, John McCormick, Alberto Sanchez and David Young.
"My Byron" is an exhibition of iconic pictures from five of our best and most celebrated professional photographers:
Jeff Dawson, Peter Gibney, John McCormick, Alberto Sanchez and David Young.
All artists were asked to come up with one picture of the lighthouse and five others...
they made some very personal and fun choices as well as some really beautiful photography of our beloved Byron...
All prints are for sale framed and unframed.
Exhibition runs until Sat 23rd January, with workshops in photography with Alberto Sanchez and Jules Ober offered later in the holidays.
This vibrant exhibition previews the talent graduating from the 2009 Diploma of Fine Arts at TAFE NSW, Lismore campus.
The work of these innovative artists embraces diverse approaches and mediums, including painting, printmaking, drawing, collage and digital media. Over the span of their course, the 19 participants have developed strong individual voices that engage the viewer to see the world from intriguing and at times challenging perspectives.

After Adam, then came Eve...
Eve, an exhibition looking at depictions of the female figure and other artistic interpretations of the feminine.
First there was ADAM...
This exhibition focussing on the male form was the first of two open invitation community exhibitions.
From classic torsos to abstract and conceptual interpretations of the masculine in all mediums, the Adam exhibition offered something for everyone.
The “Wish You Were Here!” Art Postcard exhibition has been a huge success... more than 350 and postcards in any media, from professional artists to those who just love to create - adults, youth and children.
Generously sponsored by Byron Bay Writers Festival, The Echo, Arts Factory Backpackers Lodge, Byron
Farmers’ Market and Byron Youth Service as well as Still @ the centre, six prizes have been awarded to 6 winning artists who have had their artwork reproduced as actual postcards.
Organic Art, Fresh Photography from Jules Ober:
This exhibition has been kindly sponsored by HAHNEMÜHLE FINE ART PAPER. Jules Ober choses to print onto Hahnemuehle's Bamboo 290 and Sugarcane 300 papers as they are luscious to print on AND they are made from eco-friendly fibres.
Ten local artists are displaying their textile art in “Tactile Textiles” an exhibition at Waywood Gallery from 1 to 23 May.
These artists are skilled at using the visual, dimensional, sensual and tactile qualities of textiles and creating from them fascinating art forms that are both subtle and bold with gentle tones and vivid colours.

‘Artomologist’ Jane Davenport will be conducting a 2 day workshop of visual exploration for the essentially curious as part of this year’s FEHVA visual arts festival in Byron.
Join international award-winning artist Jane Davenport on a journey to discover the little life. You will head into the wilds of Byron Shire’s own wetlands in search of the elusive, with the world’s leading Artomologist as tour guide. Jane will encourage you to get ‘down and dirty’ in search of interesting subjects.
‘Dealing with subject matter that is afraid of you, lends a whole new meaning to the word patience!’ says Jane. Jane will reveal some of her secrets learned from countless hours spent stalking the tiniest of game.
In a move away from grabbing snapshots participants will learn how to approach ‘bugjects’ and capture images that express the real beauty of the moment. Participants will learn the essential tools of editing as well as being encouraged to dip into the great pool of digital mastery.
10.00am – 4.00pm Sat 24 and Sun May 25
Cost pp 2 day workshop $150.00. Limited to 15 people so book early 02 66871 623

that means a spray or a squirt of liquid and because this is) an exhibition of giclee prints
on canvas, watercolour papers and photo papers
in which
some are framed and some are not
some are contemporary and some are timeless
some are reproductions of local artists’ work
and some are from private collections
but all have in common to be
great presents & very affordable art*
*And, as the Gallery was participating in its December Affordable Art Sale, this exhibition donated 10% of its proceeds to The Buttery.

an exhibition of
paper reliefs & sculptures
“For the ‘life model’ of my works I take the forms of ancient Hebrew verses, from psalms and prayers as they appear in the traditional formats of printed scriptures or prayer books that for centuries have been used to express feelings of men who read from them daily.
I take the forms and denude them of their verbal content but not of their accumulated emotional content, my sense of which guides the way I take the forms apart and then reassemble them, stitching – a traditionally feminine craft – the torn leaves of two-dimensionality into three-dimensional reliefs or sculptures, verses in air.” Nitza Flantz-Karpel

ARTEXPRESS - EXTRA EDITION
The exhibition, held simultaneously in the two galleries, was a selection of outstanding works from the 2006 HSC Examination in Visual Arts. Following similar guidelines to the annual statewide ARTEXPRESS exhibitions, this EXTRA EDITION focussed on works from Northern Rivers schools and was timed to coincide with the travelling regional exhibition showing at the
Grafton Regional Gallery.
This ancillary exhibition gave the local community an opportunity to identify and applaud the visual and intellectual strengths of our young talents. School tours are obviously most welcome too.

Indian celebration with dance, food, music & art!

The Crashing Doors Exhibition
Mixed-media works by
Jackie Babbage, Svea Lucia Björnsson, Susie Brockhoff,
Liam Bruce, Robbie Curtain, Scott Dall, Carmen Hogue,
David Horner, Sally McDonald, Liz McLeod, Cleis Pearce, Gaily Russell, Debra Simpson, Kaye Wearne.
“The mixed-media works in this show represent some of the strongest, most consistent work to have emerged from Dynamic Drawing classes in the recent period. They were chosen for their authentic use of visual language and their striking originality. Drawing is a philosophy, not a craft and the classes have provided a forum for the full-bodied translation of experience into compelling and intimate realities. At the centre of good work is something unpredictable and risky; or even what could be seen as raw and ragged. Some will find it confronting, challenging and different; a lumberjack to the sensibilities. These works are not institutionalised nor are they trade-offs or commodities. We have tried to do art, not furnish a boutique.
This exhibition represents a considerable journey and a significant commitment for those involved. Some of the work has the crash sound of real change.”
