uncorked exhibition 29th August until 30th September 2015
Lovers of all things fine – whether art or wine – are invited to visit Houghton Winery during September for the Uncorked Exhibition.
The exhibition brings together the artwork of three popular Perth artists: Mary Crawford, Roger Reading and Honor Lovis. Their works range from paintings on canvas to fabric sculpture and repurposed objects found in nature. Together, their art represents a fascinating insight into three individual journeys through their physical and emotional worlds.
The artists made the decision to come together for a group exhibition after all three went on an art tour of Tuscany in the company of award-winning Czech artist, Jana Vodesil-Baruffi, in 2014. Of the firm belief that art and wine are a natural fit, the artists were pleased to partner with the world-famous Houghton’s Vineyard in the stunning Swan Valley wine region as an exhibition venue.
Visitors to the Uncorked Exhibition will be surprised by the diversity of the work from these three artists. The exhibition will feature sunlit pastoral scenes reminiscent of peasant villages in France, dramatic foreign cityscapes and stark Australian landscapes, as well as artworks in evocative abstract and modern styles. Three-dimensional sculptures of tribal women, mythical folk, and forest creatures will delight and intrigue art-lovers of all ages.
Uncorked is the artists’ first group exhibition together. The artists will be available to meet the public at the opening on Sunday August 30 between 2pm and 4pm. Houghton Winery also provides wine tasting and fine dining for visitors (bookings on 9274 9540).
The Uncorked Exhibition commences on Saturday August 29, 2015 and is open daily between 10am and 4pm until Wednesday September 30, 2015. Houghton Winery is located at 148 Dale Rd Middle Swan, just off Great Northern Highway (see below for a map). Visit the exhibition website.
