Bartley + Company Art I am really enjoying Andre Hemer's billboard in the courtyard on Ghuznee Street. It will stay up for a while yet although his exhibition 'Painting in 3-D' finishes this Saturday."WOAH Way to blow my mind Andre Hemer" wrote Pulp magazine about the exhibition.

Bartley + Company Art A wonderful riotous celebration of painting - "a juxtaposing landscape of Photoshop gradations, blurred digital images, vector scrawls, graffiti process, painterly intervention, and rudimentary 3-D renderings akin to an early computer game".

Bartley + Company Art Was Banksy really making a documentary with 'Exit through the Gift Shop' or was he doing a Costa Botes style fiction? Does it matter? It was great entertainment anyway.

Bartley + Company Art Congratulations to Richard Orjis, whose work is the first to be shown in the Bledisloe Walkway light boxes, a new public art project opening this Saturday in Auckland. Richard’s project 'Park' features 5 photographs which depict an opulent fantasy world. One of them is 'Bed In', first seen in our recent group photograp...hy exhibition. If you can’t make it to Auckland to see the lighboxes, pop into the gallery to see the works we have in stock.

Bartley + Company Art Mary-Louise Browne’s exhibition REIFY is now open. With elegant wit she presents 2 new bodies of work: school mottoes stitched in gold lettering on linen, and a series of ideas about representation etched on brass plaques. We also love MLB’s ‘Just nine short words make up one long line’ – her 2009 neon on display on the wall of our courtyard.

Bartley + Company Art We, like so many Wellingtonians, have enjoyed curator Heather Galbraith’s contribution at City Gallery. Her warm inclusive manner, critically engaged curation and eloquent talk will be missed. Lucky then that her new job is Senior Curator Art at Te Papa. Heather will leave her mark at City Gallery for some time yet as ...her latest show 'Ready to Roll' runs til mid September. We wish her all the best.

Bartley + Company Art 'Contemplating the Marvellous: Constructed Photography' featuring Andrea Gardner, Richard Orjis and Kate Woods opened on Friday night so we invite you to pop in and check out these fantastical new works when you have a chance.

Bartley + Company Art Gallery artist Elliot Collins has gone grand-scale in a site-specific installation on a 14 metre long wall in City Gallery Wellington's new exhibition Ready to Roll. Check it out..

I like Sydney Biennale curator Brian Elliot's rather romantic take on art and beauty. In his catalogue essay, he describes beauty in art as “a resolution of energy, thought and feeling in aesthetic form". And more: "Beauty itself can, at times be terrible as well as alluring. Art can reflect the sweetest or strongest ...of emotions; it can also express the most traumatic events but, unlike in life, when they occur nobody gets hurt. Contemporary art is one of the most life-affirming activities in which we can become engaged. If it is any good, it balances enjoyment with wisdom by offering creative, free and open perspectives that are desperately needed in terrified, complicated and dangerous times."
Brett Graham features prominently in the Biennale with two large works, including this new near life size tank 'Mihaia'(messiah) which was made specially for the exhibition.
There's lots of other great work too - AEF+S, Adel Abidin,Gonkar Gyatso amongst others

Bartley + Company Art Somaesthetic –thinking about Seung Yul Oh’s great show at the Dowse makes me think about this word somaesthetic [which came from the Adam Art Gallery Antony McCall brochure] and is staying with me. I like it and we’ve had a lot of it lately from the knock out McCall to Janet Cardiff and Seung.
