About the event
Garry Osborn is a professional artist with a lifelong interest in contemporary art and jazz. Many of the paintings exhibited in this show are a fusion of the two subjects. Garry lives in a stunning area of The Bay of Plenty and has a long-established practice of teaching and critiquing art. As a jazzman Garry uses his imagination to approach the abstraction of painting and his improvements in paint; to play his solos.
Jim Duncan has been an artist for 7 decades and is now a leading painter in contemporary acrylics, from his studio in the Bay of Plenty. In this exhibition he will present a large variety of New Zealand based subject matter for your perusal. Covering many historical locations graphically in beautiful acrylics, his range of mainly New Zealand subject matter is presented in a pleasing variety of styles, with a wry sense of humour.
