It’s been a while since we have posted a blog, but I thought it was well worth creating one for this…
2020 has had a pretty dramatic start!
The bushfires have been, and still are, horrendous and the season is not over yet. The scale of the fires and areas covered is something none of us imagined.
The loss of human life, wildlife, livestock, homes and properties is heartbreaking. For those directly involved, whether fighting the fires, dealing with loss, caring for the people and animals affected by the fires, the efforts will continue on long after the fires are out. While there have already been wonderful acts of generosity by political parties, private businesses and the general public, the amount needed won’t be finite – ongoing support, in so many ways, will be needed for years ahead.
The art world is doing its bit too…quite a number of galleries are either creating donation sites or exhibitions to raise money. While Quadrant Gallery is currently not exhibiting publicly, our Website Blog and Facebook page are still active, so we have the opportunity to ‘spread the word’.
We have heard from some of our artists regarding different fund-raising opportunities, so I am forwarding the information on to you…
This applies to artists and art lovers. Details for donation or participation are in the information featured, so please use the contact details provided there.
Donald Ramsay’s work is featured in the appeal from the Geelong Art Gallery. This artwork was inspired by the artist’s personal experiences during the Black Saturday Fires.
 
 Another of our artists, Warren Nichols forwarded information from the Gipplsand Art Gallery . This is an opportunity for artists who may want to participate, and art lovers who may also want to partake in the auction or visit the exhibition.
There is too much information to include in this blog, however if you go to  
http://www.gippslandartgallery.com/exhibitions/ you will find out about the exhibition and how to enter as an artist (it's not too late), entry form, how works can be delivered etc. and when the exhibition is taking place. There are a number of options open, if you want to help.
There is also an update on the information from Gippsland Art Gallery on Deborah Klein’s Artist Blog.

The Joy of Choice by Cetta Pilati

We currently have on display in the gallery Cetta Pilati’s sculpture The Joy of Choice
This metal sculpture, measuring H1900mm x W1280mm x D800mm, and weighing approx. 90kg was recently part of the Moltalto Prize exhibition.

“The Joy of Choice, Steel (Iron Oxide finish),
is part of an unfolding and ongoing body of work in response to reading “The Biology of Change: from DNA to Happiness” by Tamara Mount.  I am interested in the possibility that we can alter our DNA by the choices we make in order to achieve happiness and that such changes can be within our control.”
                                                                                                                                                                            Cetta Pilati 2019
Cetta Pilatti completed her Bachelor of Fine Art (Sculpture) in 1991 and is currently completing her Cert.IV in Engineering Fabrication, in order to pursue her growing interest in metal sculpture. Her primary medium has been stone mosaic work, which she also teaches. Cetta has works in a number of commercial venues and private residences throughout Victoria. Metal sculpture has allowed her practice to grow and enter new areas of sculptural interpretation and interest; something she is keen to pursue.

The Joy of Choice
will be on display in the window at our gallery, and can be viewed more closely by appointment.
Price on application.

Two of our artists, Ross and Gina Miller are part of the Dandenong Ranges Open Studios weekend event, on the weekend of 30th & 31st. March 2019

For those of you who may be familiar with Ross and Gina’s work, this is a great opportunity to see where and how they work, in a truly delightful setting in the Dandenongs.
The weekend celebrates and showcases the studios and works of a wide variety of artists who live and work in the Dandenong Ranges area.
The website will give you more information:  openstudios.org.au


Picture
ROSS MILLER
BRONZE, WOOD, CIMENT FONDU, MILD STEEL, STONE SCULPTURE
Ross's sculptures of bronze, wood, stone and ciment fondu are not just objects. They hold a narrative as well. They are motivated by a lifetime of travel and observation reflecting the spiritual beliefs and cultural needs of people throughout time and his responses to the past and present.

Picture
GINA MILLER
MIXED MEDIA PAINTING, PRINTMAKING
Gina's work is expressive, spontaneous and experimental, even though she may start with a realistic picture in her mind she usually moves to the abstract. She loves to use a variety of materials and media: paint, inks, crayons & collage papers. Her work is accidental brush strokes without conscious thinking.

Both artists would be delighted to welcome you to visit their studios during the Dandenong Ranges Open Studios Weekend, they are at 


Apacheta Gallery & M Gallery
6 Selby Aura Road
Selby, VIC 3159
Melways reference 124 A12
