We just saw this great show over at the fantastic Opening Hours site – Max Berry and Ears will both be opening shows at the Harrison Gallery in Paddington, Sydney next month – and this is just another time we wish we had a teleporter – serious, Kurzweil, get someone on to that, yeah?

“’Passenger’ – Max Berry’s latest exhibition ‘Passenger’ presents a series of paintings, jewellery and toys that reveals an imaginary world in flux.  Caught in moments of introverted retrospection and transcendence Berry’s figures consider the relationship between, the actual and the spiritual, agency and fate, life and death, and the passage between these states.

‘The Grid’  – The latest exhibition by Daniel O’Toole, otherwise known as ‘Ears’, investigates and deconstructs the formalist approach to portrait painting. With a background in graffiti Ears has been making a transition to studio artist that has allowed for an engaging body of large canvas works.  ‘The Grid” is a study of the uniform, identity and the conditions in which they exist.”

Two great artists, two great shows, one great roof.
