THE GAMES WE PLAY


Riverbend Art & Wine’s annual exhibition The Games We Play, is running at the Gallery at Riverbend on the South Coast until September 30, 2019.

"Unique, elegant and quirky concoctions of visual poetry" is one of the statements used to describe Marke Meyer’s exquisite figurative bronze sculpture.

The gallery is very excited to be presenting such a beautiful, large body of his work!

Meyer has pioneered the use of suspension to best display his works and to create the feeling of lightness, whimsy and freedom. He constantly reinvents himself as an artist but always remains true to his narrative. He is an innovator who constantly experiments with new concepts.

Expect chameleons, paper dolls, goldfish and apples - all playful and quirky details found throughout his figurative work. Some of the works to be exhibited are brand new Edition 1 pieces straight from the Foundry.

Meyer will be supported by fellow sculptor and friend Michael Cañadas and painter Sarah Kelly.

Riverbend Art Gallery is situated at the Riverbend Crocodile Farm in Southbroom on the Old National Road near Margate. For more information call Riverbend on 039 316 6204
