Bennett & Tom Ferson “Double Take”

Sunday, April 15th, 2012

This Thursday night is the opening of “Double Take”, a joint show by local Sydney artists Bennett and Tom Ferson (also residents of Higher Ground Studio). More info below, an awesome video and a selection of preview shots.

Kind of Gallery
6pm, 118 Oxford St, Darlinghurst

‘Double Take’ is the latest collection of artworks & installations from Sydney based artists BENNETT & TOM FERSON. Within this new collection the artists explore both the similarities and differences between their works and practices.
The artists have created two stylistically disparate bodies of work, but through a penchant for abstraction and nostalgic imagery have created an evidently tactile series of artworks that encourage a ‘double take’ – the alteration of the surface mirroring the alternative concept that lays behind.

Sneak Peek: Numskull

Sunday, November 20th, 2011

Also this Thursday night in Sydney, Numskull is opening his show “Mixed Messages” at Kind Of Gallery, Surry Hills. This new body of work has taken Numskull into a new direction, with more detail, more focus on typography and a step forward in technique as he slowly weens out the use of some of his old methods. Every single piece of art in this show is hand-made by the artist. From the fonts, the frames, the sculptures and more… Check out some photos from a recent trip to his Annandale studio and also a newly released video called “Dance like a video, sting like a Gif”.

Sneak peek: Max Berry and Ears at Harrison Galleries

Wednesday, June 15th, 2011

In the lead up to their duo show at Harrison Galleries this weekend, Max Berry and Ears let us inside their studio for a look at what’s in stall for the opening this Saturday. Long time collaborators and friends, these two artists have produced bodies of work that compliment each other and show the next step they’ve both taken in their artistic careers.

Max’s show titled “Passenger” presents a series of paintings, jewelry and toys that reveals an imaginary world in flux. Caught in moments of introverted retrospection and transcendence Berry’s figures consider the relationship between, the actual and the spiritual, agency and fate, life and death, and the passage between these states.

Ears’ show title “The Grid” investigates and deconstructs the formalist approach to portrait painting. With a background in graffiti Ears has been making a transition to studio artist that has allowed for an engaging body of large canvas works. ‘The Grid” is a study of the uniform, identity and the conditions in which they exist.

Opening: Saturday 18th June, 5 – 7pm (Click for Facebook event)

Sneak Peek: BENNETT “ORANGES & LEMONS”

Monday, May 16th, 2011

Bennett’s solo show “Oranges & Lemons” opens at Oh Really Gallery this Thursday May 19th, and it looks like it’s going to be a killer body of work. The man himself sent us through a few sneaky preview shots of the work he will be displaying at the show. He’s really stepped up with this latest collection of paintings, which he has poured his love of stencils, posters, and bold colours into. Check out the photos and a process video below.
