MARS Gallery

It was a very quiet night in art heaven, in fact, a starry, starry night, when Vincent who was quite bored because he couldn’t find Pablo looked across at Michelangelo and Leonardo and said, “Let’s get the hell out of here and get to MARS to see what the youngsters are drawing."

Group exhibition

Featuring works by Godwin Bradbeer, Chun Yin Rainbow Chan, Harry Crome, Oliver Crome, Rebecca Jones, Jenna Lee, Dani McKenzie, Harry McAlpine, Nick Mourtzakis, Eva Nolan, Kenny Pittock, Scotty So and Tricky Walsh. 

MARS' drawing exhibition celebrates the enduring and diverse medium of drawing, offering an insight into the artist’s hand and revealing the unique intimacy of the drawn line. Bringing together local artists from a range of practices, the show explores drawing as a fundamental craft shared by all artists.

"Drawing is foundational to an artist’s practice, shaping and resolving ideas, while offering an intimate insight into the artist’s hand and mind. Through the intimacy of paper, the building of charcoal and the accumulation of layers, drawing highlights the artist’s process and way of thinking. It reflects the countless hours dedicated to this often-underestimated craft. I am excited to present this group of emerging and established artists who explore the role of drawing and its enduring influence. Regardless of where an artist is in their career, drawing still remains a significant part of their creative process.” – Andy Dinan
