A group show by Louise Hall, Ian Calder, Terence King, Terri
Broll and Heather Gourlay-Conyngham titled Five
Degrees Of Realism opens at the KZNSA Gallery on March 21.
Five artists exhibit work that reflects on the work of one
or more of the other exhibiting artists.
The artists are part of an ongoing peer mentoring and
discussion group. Their work is related in the first instance by the orthodoxy
and immediacy of communicating via marks on a canvas. Interaction between a
painting’s nominal appearance and its experience by the participating viewer
is, further, a key concern linking the painters’ work. The works, although
founded chiefly on observation, depart to differing degrees from the specifics
of the source so as to amplify the interpretive options of the subject.
A guiding motivation in assembling this exhibition is that
new connections might be made through the juxtaposition of the works. To this
end, each of the artists is exhibiting a work which reflects on the work of one
or more of the other exhibiting artists.
Five Degrees Of
Realism runs until April 9 at the
KZNSA Gallery, 166 Bulwer Road, Glenwood, in Durban. More information on 031
