EXHIBITION INVITE 28 Nov - 23 Dec 2013 Aldo Balding          Perceptions                  Artist Statement Leonardo da Vinci said : "A good painter has two main objects to paint, man and the intention of his soul. The former is easy, the latter hard as he has to represent it by the attitude and movement of the limbs." This exhibition is a glimpse into a world that intrigues me, it is my vision, my perception of things. I hope the works are not melodramatic, but real, real lives, real people in real situations. I love all subject matters but nothing moves me like the interaction of people. There  is a thread of subtle tension in my work that exists in us all.

Jaco Roux Exhibition video

Newsletter October  2013 Jaco Roux Exhibition: My Limpopo 8- 29 October Jaco Roux's work has been greeted with a wonderful response. The show sold 80% of the works before the exhibition doors opened. Art l lovers of all genres expressed appreciation for Jaco's powerful works. One art lover  said "I am generally not an expressionist or abstract fan but Jaco's work is incredibly pleasing."  New work: Albert Coertse, "Daltonica" ‘Daltonica’ is the Italian word for ‘colour bind’. Albert Coertse the master of spatial organization. Looping rhythms, diagonals, colours and balance.  In this painting,  he places two colors side by side, the contrast may enhance them, or they may be what is called the ‘spreading effect’, they spread into each other visually, and therefore change in the other direction. You can see this on closer inspection, the looping ‘n’ shape gradually getting smaller, working from the outer, to the inner quadrant of the painting. This is known as the mutual affect of color.                                                                                                                                         3 metre Andre Stead Sculpture erected, "Flight" Flight is an anamorphic juxtaposition of two female figures, one standing in a contrapposto position, arms raised above her head and the other caught in an upward leap. Flight represents the moment of departure, the transition between standing still and flying. The piece contains both an active and a passive figure creating tension within the sculpture and adding to the feeling of  movement. Flight is all about moving beyond our own limitations and taking flight in a figurative way.                                                                                                                                                                                                Cape Town Art Fair 25-27 October The Christopher Møller Art Gallery is proud to be participating in the inaugural Cape Town art fair.

	Red Illumination 'Red Illumination', powder coated aluminium, Height 2 metres. Andre Stead’s eagerly anticipated ‘Red Illumination’ has arrived at the gallery. Red is the colour of passion! A ballet dancers passion for her art is beautifully depicted in this powerful sculpture. ‘Red Illumination’ showcases a dancing figure suspended in a pirouette, poised on the edge of her balance. Her upper body pulls into a directional distortion of form that emphasizes her apparent movement. On the figure’s back is a jagged line that forms a continuous edge around the internal and external surface of the artwork. This line represents the boundary between the conscious and subconscious mind, each dependent on the other for balance, and continuously influencing one another. Click here to view more works
	LOUIS NEL 17.8.13 17.8.13, Oil on canvas, 120 x 150 cm Before the dawn of a new day, when stillness greets and freshness defines one’s state of mind, these are periods of contemplation, reflection and peace. Gazing upon the soft landscapes and seascapes of Louis Nel’s work transports one to that quiet contemplative state. His works employ soft lines and muted tones, nothing in them captures the thought processes into a form or appearance. This characteristic of his work is what allows the mind to drift, drift where it may go, to form associations and to heighten sensations and emotions like a grand piece of music.
