We are pleased to announce the 23rd edition of Artist of the Day, a valuable platform for artists since 1983. This two week exhibition showcases the work of ten artists, chosen not by the gallery, but by established professional practitioners who have each nominated a talent of their choice.

Our second Artist of the Day is Dianne Kaufman selected by Glen Sujo, who will exhibit a one-day solo show on Tuesday 21st June, 11am - 7pm.

“Kaufman’s images remind us how tenuous our sense of physical and psychic wholeness can be. With violent impulse she marshals dense oils, varnish-work, clouds of transparent colour and darkest vine charcoal to reveal the plural identities of self and Other (as fierce rival, inquisitor or caressing lover) greeting their impertinent, split-second arrival with jubilation.” Sujo

“When I began to paint I thought I wanted to speak about being human in some way. Now, I am not sure if I am painting about paint. The two seem to collide. Watercolour speaks to me of impermanence, ephemeral ghosts; oil paints of materiality, the sensuality of flesh; and through drawing I discover movement and energy, and also time and loss. The body here, then not here. Erasure.” Kaufman

RSVP to info@flowersgallery.com to join us at 1pm for a free Talk with both artists and refreshments.
