Academy Galleries Presents Annual Autumn Show

WELLINGTON – The New Zealand Academy of Fine Arts, a self-funding gallery dedicated to the visual arts, announces its yearly fall art show. The gallery’s longstanding Autumn Show will again bring together a wide range of pieces from a variety of artists.

The exhibition will feature a number of Academy artists, as well as two guests: Anneke Borren and Yaniv Janson. Borren is an experienced, self-taught sculptor who strives for simplicity; conversely, Janson is a young, up-and-coming painter who focuses much of his work on social and environmental issues. Both have had their works broadly shown at national and international levels.

“It is a real privilege to be presenting works from these two truly talented artists who both share their thoughts on the world, its landscape, cultural being and current state of flux with a stunning combination of 2D and 3D works,” said Justin Morgan, Academy Director.

The Autumn Show will run from April 30-May 22, 2011. Gallery doors are open daily from 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Admission is free.
