We are a group of 8 artists with a common interest:
Art
Art
and Art!
We are also interested in new opportunities to think, decide and create, focussing on a specific topic.
On this occasion, each artist of the group will express their self through their personal creative language and artistic medium (Ceramic, Paper, Fabric, Artwork, Performance, Acrylic, Sculptures, etc.) expressing what ART means for each one.
The focus will be on the artworks and/or the life of the famous artist Picasso!
Gemma Garcia, Art Group Coordinator and Curator, has invited different artists living in Brisbane- Australia, to participate in this project.
Gemma is fascinated by the idea of this project: Australian Artists transforming and expressing what the Spanish artist and his Artworks means to them, taking the opportunity to create links between both countries; in addition to the fact that Art has neither cultural nor language barriers.
At the moment, all the brains of the 8 artists are reaching their full potential with a 'brain storm' that we still do not know the outcome.
What artistic surprises are going to emerge and impress the Brisbane public!
“Picasso Today” is the theme of the Art group exhibition.
It is an invitation to the Australian Artists to investigate and discover the Spanish culture and Artworks of this famous artist.
Artists are encouraged to transform these ideas of the Spanish Icon Picasso into a contemporary interpretation of his Artworks and life today in Australia.
