ROAR! gallery ... 55 Abel Smith St, Wellington

(corner Cuba St and Abel Smith St - above Real Groovy)

 

  21 – 30 January 2010

  Slices of Wellington

Vincent Duncan

 

Vincent Duncan is a well known self-taught artist whose colourful, expressive artworks depict the landscape and pulse of the Wellington cityscape surrounding him.  

 

Slices of Wellington will delight visitors to ROAR! gallery as it showcases Vincent’s iconic vibrant style and imagery in a broad range of new works.

 

Images of boats, flowers, and Wellington suburbs are lovingly conveyed with many layers of thick and textural oil paint.  Vincent uses vivid colours and creates a sensory engagement with his canvases which are familiar, idyllic and expressive. He recreates a new world for himself when he paints, “my perspective is based on feeling rather than on reality or precise technical application. The results can often be quite funny and symbolic” says Vincent.

FELT IT! pulls together a collection of artwork which shows off the diversity and achievements of the endearing felt tip pen. 

 

While often thought of as a child’s medium, with cheap, throwaway connotations, the felt tip pen rightly assumes centre stage in this showcase of exciting new work made by some of Wellington’s hottest Artists, Illustrators, Costumiers, Cartoonists, and Film Makers.    

 

FELT IT! is sure to challenge some opinions about perceiving, valuing and believing, and will inevitably make you want to run home and pull out your old felt tips.

 

FELT IT! will be a hands-on experience as you will get an opportunity to participate and get your hands dirty.

 

FELT IT! is the first of its kind in Wellington – participating artists include Brendan Jon Philip, Kiran X, Miss Mica Still, Reece Tong, Julie Wilson, Beware, Charles Cunningham, Laura Chaplin, Vicky Dooley, Marci Tackett, Dr Phil, Ruth Korver, Timothy Leatigaga,Yen Comer-Hudson, Colin Korovin, Monica Moreno, Emily Moore, Yelena Barbalich, Wendy Best, Pauline Johns and Timothy Rodley.
