Kerrie’s Story for radio
It seems to be media week for our Artists again on ABC radio and this time Kerrie chats about her experiences of Black Saturday and the new work this has spawned.
Two Artists, one Firestorm… Black Saturday
Two of our exhibiting Artists, Werner and Ursula Theinert were interviewed on ABC radio recently about their experience on Black Saturday fighting the fires that threatened their home and how that has influenced their current art works. Check out the amazing interview…
The works which have been inspired by this tragic event in Victorian history will be in this exhibition.
New York Connection Kerrie Warren - Artist
Kerrie Warren Abstract Expressionist and Regionalis Artist, was interviewed on ABC Radio recently about her New York Exhibition and work.
“Kerrie lived out a long-time dream last month, when an exhibition of her abstract expressionist paintings went on display at a gallery in New York’s Chelsea art district.
While Kerrie has always aspired to see her work go on show in New York, it could hardly have happened at a worse time, arriving to find the city’s art district in the grip of a major recession.
“New York is in a recession at the moment, so I did get to see it at its low side,” Kerrie said. “I got to see a very true and real aspect of New York. To go all that way and see artists that struggle just like we do at home, that was an amazing experience.”

Somehow this makes the exhibition all the more real.
Peter makes a stand and gets some attention for it.
Peter Biram one of the Visual Artists to be part of the Regionalis exhibition, achieved another milestone and was recognised for his efforts recently.
You can read the whole article here. Well done Peter, the article gives readers a small taste of his stance on the environment and art. Here’s a small part of it. “We are a group of artists - a collective social and political voice - who are concerned primarily about the environment.”
This is a small piece of things to come and you can see more at the Regionalis exhibition, Aug 19 - Sept 5th at red gallery 157 St Georges Rd Northcote. Wed - Sat 11am - 5pm.
