One thing we have noticed over the years is that the quality of poster design in New Zealand is improving everyday.
If your not joining in counting and “ha ha haaing” by number 3, your not a true Count Dracula fan.
Wonderful numbers by Gentleman Scholar.
With our local obsession with New Zealand themed art & graphics we thought it would be cool to do a blog post series of other countries local styles. We bring you Patriotic Illustrations.
We are kicking it off with Greece. Olives, Ouzo, Roman stuff, Feta Cheese & Zeus seemed to be popular.
This is the work of Dimitra Tzanos, some illustration of Greek customs, food and themes.
Luke Bott from Kansas did these illustrations of Zeus & a Greek Warrior.
Last night we headed down to the opening night of Public Access 5. An exhibition that’s put on every year by Cut Collective and other collaborating artists.
This year it is in the silo 6 pack in Wynard Quarter on Auckland’s waterfront. It was a balmy night, great crew, cold beer, hot pizza… and a show that was so worth heading out to see.
If you’re not familiar with the area, the silo’s are in the old tank farm, next to docked super yachts and flash new bars. Each silo has an instillation, from fine art prints, painted crates, music videos being projected onto old machinery, interactive mirror light show, lasers and sound activated lights….
When inside, you forget you’re on Auckland’s waterfront. We suggest you go at night to get the best out of the show.
It’s on until the 13th of April. To top it off, Shake & Bake is on tomorrow at the same spot (Sat 7th April, 12pm – 6pm). Live painting, live music, all thanks to Basefm.
We went to the exhibition opening on Monday. Here are a few snaps taken by Jason Hailes. This was Flox’s first solo show and we were blown away by the work, especially the large hand cut white stencils and works on wood.
The exhibition is in time with the release of the Fly My Pretties IV CD and DVD that Flox did the artwork for. There is also a room to chill and have a beer while watching the new the DVD.
It is on all week and open until 6pm at 155 K road (just next to Verona). Go there have a drink and you may even bump into Hayley herself. This is also a seriously good chance to own a Flox one off or a very low edition piece.
We have a hand-picked selection of limited edition prints by Flox.
