Megan Archer

A young artist with a distinct painting style, Megan Archer uses collage as a starting point for her oil paintings. A way to get quick ideas down, play around with composition and not have anything be fixed before she scans the collage into photoshop to further distort and abstract them. Some of her collage works aren’t destined for oil paintings and the quirkier scenes she releases as fine art prints, like this one here ‘We Drifted On By’.

Joel Kefali

Joel Kefali is better known for his work in film but it’s these abstract collage pieces he designed for The Sherwood Hotel in Queenstown that piqued our interest. We were so excited when an order for 20 of these prints at A0 size came through our website, we had to know the artist and see his other work. Sadly these were on offs for Joel but not sadly these are amazing and their exclusivity make them that much more covetable, if you go to the Sherwood look out for the psychedelic works in each room.

Bobby Neel Adams

Bobby Neel Adams is a photographer based in New York, ‘AgeMaps’ is a series of photographs that show the same person at two points within their life. The works have a rather sinister look about them that we can’t quite put our fingers on but are also mesmerising to stare at and notice the familiarity in the faces and imagine the lives lived between the two points.

Clare Celeste Borsch

‘The Mushroom Hunters’ is a large-scale three-dimensional collage by Clare Celeste Borsch based on the poem by Neil Gaiman. It took the artist six weeks to complete and the result is an immersive forest of flora, fauna, birds, amphibians, fungi and incests all carefully placed in this stunning scene.

“The women, who did not need to run down prey, had brains that spotted landmarks and made paths between them left at the thorn bush and across the scree and look down in the bole of the half-fallen tree, because sometimes there are mushrooms. Before the flint club, or flint butcher’s tools, The first tool of all was a sling for the baby to keep our hands free and something to put the berries and the mushrooms in, the roots and the good leaves, the seeds and the crawlers.” – Neil Gaiman, excerpt from The Mushroom Hunters

Gavin Hurley

Gavin Hurley is an Auckland based artist and one half of the Ponsonby institution Flotsam and Jetsam. When he isn’t dressing the always immaculate store front he can be found making original paintings and collage artworks. Recently we have seen Gavin playfully incorporate 3-D elements in to his work, our favourite has to be the images of his subjects ‘The Suits’ creating the artwork.

Arna Miller & Ravi Zupa

Husband & wife duo Arna Miller & Ravi Zupa have ignited (pun intended) our love for the furry feline. These hilarious matchbox woodblock prints depicting drunk cats in all kinds of all too familiar scenarios are a HOOT, from the size to the simple colour palette everything about them is perfect. Also, watch the quick video below of how they make the tiny prints and be even more impressed.

Elisa Webler

Elisa Werbler is a designer and maker based in New York City but it’s her serigraph gemstone series that caught our eye recently. Each print is made using 5 layers of transparent color, the overlapping of each layer results in the appearance of 10 or more colors. So clever how the use of shapes overlapping one another to create the look of a sparkling gemstone.

Ellen Von Wiegand

Ellen Von Wiegand is an artist based in South East London. It’s under her instagram handle @ellenvonwiegand that we found her mesmerising videos of her linocut prints. Everyone loves a good reveal and Ellen does them like a pro, cropping in and showing small details of work intrigue the viewer just enough to keep you guessing until finally she unveils the work. You gain a huge appreciation for the finished result by being invited in to view the part of the making process, we could watch Ellen work all day.

Michelle Maguire

Michelle Maguire is a prop and set stylist in Columbus, Ohio, but it’s her collaborative book ‘Salami Dreaming’ that caught our attention. It features eye-popping, hand-printed images of her blunt, funny, completely unimpressed Italian American Great-Aunt Doll, with colorful Aunt Doll anecdotes by Aaron Beck, Michelle’s husband. Aunt Doll, is who we all hope to be at 85. Michelle has managed to create

Uriel Marín

Uriel Marin hails from the east coast of Mexico and has trained extensively in fine art and the skills of print-making, etching and engraving. Our first introduction to Uriel was through the piece ‘Chapoteando’ which was bought in for framing by one of our customers. We were in awe! The sheer size of the work is impressive (1290mm x 890mm) and we were even more impressed to learn it’s a hand executed woodblock print! A definite high for the team for 2019!

The Corsini Collection: a window on Renaissance Florence

The Corsini family have one dope art collection featuring paintings from artists like Sandro Botticelli, Andrea del Sarto and Caravaggio it’s amazing!!! This exhibition is an opportunity to get up close and personal with some real bourgeois art from the Renaissance era.

Malcolm Harrison: a Celebration

A showcase of nationally acclaimed textile artist Malcolm Harrison, he is most well known for his quilting and embroidery work but we’re not talking the kind your nan does. Malcolm’s depth of skill and detailing in his work makes you wanna stare at them longingly wishing you curl up on the couch in one. Waiheke Community Art Gallery has the privilege of hosting his estate of painted works on paper, small sculpture, assemblages, poetry and illustrations for children’s books.

Robert George:  A memoir for Falling Light

Robert George’s style of films can be described as ethereal and dreamlike. His new commissioned film explores ideas of death and how we deal with that and what it means to remember. You’re most likely going to feel all the feels when watching this film so be sure to pack a hanky.

Inky Paste-Up Paper Paradise: Inky Palms

Over the course of Artweek the crew from Inky Palms venture down from K’Road to the Central City Library and try their hands at taking their typically zine-bound Risograph printed concoctions from the page to the wall in a playful paste-up paper street mural celebrating reading, writing, drawing and the form of the book in all its guises, drawing inspiration from the City Library’s Heritage collection.

John Crawford: On The Streets

John Crawford’s potrait photographs have always told stories about the subject. The subject’s of this exhibition are the homeless of Auckland streets.  The event is a charity fundraiser for the City Mission, with all proceeds going directly to charity. Such a major issue in New Zealand right now and a great event to get behind this Auckland Art Week.

Ai Weiwei: Never Sorry

Never Sorry director Alison Klayman’s portrait of China’s most outspoken domestic critic Ai Weiwei makes you feel grateful for freedom of speech. This documentary is a thrilling watch as you see Ai Weiwei continue to voice his thoughts about his motherland the poster says it all really!

Judy Millar: Rock Drop

To see a Judy Millar installation in such a dynamic space is pretty exciting. The works look different from all perspectives, making you feel like you can never quite capture it in its entirety. It quite funny how experiencing a space with one of Judy’s works can make you feel, definitely a must-go-see.

Karanga Maha: Pip Hartley, Tyla Vaeau Ta’ufo’ou, Tyler-Jade Whatarangi Flay, Hiram Vaeau

Karanga Maha can be translated to the call of the many. Karanga Ink is a studio of Maori and Pasifika artists who have over 25 years tattoo experience collectively their work often speaks to the wearer’s personal story; reflecting whakapapa, whanau and significant life events. This exhibition offers an insight into the artist’s practice and the wearer’s journey through a series of photographic portraits.

Marti Friedlander: Journeys

For more than six decades Marti Friedlander’s lens followed the lives of ordinary New Zealanders and helped shape an awareness of our diverse communities with an eye for the wild and spontaneous. Marti Friedlander – Journeys follows the artist outside Auckland, to the islands of the Pacific and beyond.

Hannah Jensen: Wild – In The Making

It goes without saying that this is definitely on our list and not just because we are hosting it. Hannah will be carving her large-scale paintings daily, demonstrating her mastered technique of cutting into layers of acrylic on board revealing the colours below.  Hannah draws inspiration from hours spent walking around her late father’s game reserve in South Africa; capturing the jaw-dropping experience of standing face to face with a wild animal.  The opening is on Friday 6th October at 5.30pm, 62 Ponsonby Road, Auckland. Everyone welcome!

Hope you all get out to see some Art Week action! Head to the website to find out about exhibitions, times and locations.

Imagine all the old buildings that could be revived in this way! We know we’d certainly be keen for this in AK city…

Collaborative spaces such as 59 Rivoli are important parts of the art community as they involve the public, and give artists the opportunity to create an interactive dimension to their pieces.
