Postcards to New York - Bon Voyage Celebration - Friday 27th September

28/9/2019

Friday night. It was a mild evening; the departure lounge gallery was quietly filling with members and friends. Light music from the talented Benalla Guitar Ensemble floated across the room. Wine and finger food circulated.

The pictures on the wall were gathered together, ready to go, a lot of them, over 60 works. Compared to the pictures which came across from New York to Benalla, the local products look slightly wild, off the wall and energetic, ready for anything. Did I hear them humming there on the walls?

When they hit New York, crowded onto the gallery walls, telling their story to anyone who will look, I think the message will be loud and clear. Energy, invention, directness and a staggering diversity of image and subject. It’s a great message and a great project. Congratulations to the artists and the curator Irina Korotkow... look out New York….

Beacon - Benalla - Beacon Postcard Exchange

Beacon lies on the Hudson River about 60 miles north of the city of New York. It is an artistic community much visited by art lovers. Mervyn and I have visited several times to participate in workshops run by Basha Maryanska.

It is a charming town with many galleries and funky cafes. Pandorica’s is a fantastic café decorated deep blue like Dr Who’s Tardis! We were impressed by the Hudson Glass foundry and gallery next to RiverWinds Gallery on the main street.

The Coen Brother’s filmmakers have invested in Beacon artists’ community, buying the decommissioned high school and turning it into art studios. (Calling all property investors to do the same for Benalla!)

Benalla has a nice symmetry with Beacon as both host Not for Profit arts organizations promoting cultural vibrancy. New York based photographer Mary Ann Glass visited Benalla whilst in Victoria conducting workshops. On her return to New York Mary Ann asked 25 artists from the Hudson Valley to make the postcards now on show in Gallery 2 at NEA. In the spirit of Sister City-hood, Mary Anne offered us a reciprocal show in Beacon for artists from North East Victoria.

Our Inaugural Postcard Exchange is a cultivated space to broaden our artistic horizons and make a stimulating connection with artists on the other side of the globe. It is a playful concept designed to engage artists and public alike.

‘Postcards from New York’s Hudson Valley’, an innovative International Postcard Exhibition curated by NEA studio artist Irina Korotkow and New York based photographer Mary Anne Glass, is on display in NEA’s Exhibition Gallery (Gallery 2) from June 18th to July 14th.

Mary Anne Glass visited North East Artisans early in 2019 while in Victoria conducting workshops. On her return to New York, Mary Anne asked twenty-eight artists from New York’s Hudson Valley (about 60-70 miles north of New York City along the Hudson River) to make postcard-sized (6x8 inches) artwork on paper, cardstock, or unstretched canvas. And they were excited to participate!

The work now on exhibition at North East Artisans encompasses oil, acrylic, and watercolor paintings as well as photography, mixed media, collage art and woodcuts.

‘Postcards from New York’s Hudson Valley’ represents the first stage in a reciprocal international exchange of postcard artwork. Irina Korotkow is now encouraging artists from North East Victoria to respond to the exhibition by contributing post card sized artwork to a post card exchange with artists from the Hudson Valley. Submissions need to be 2 dimensional works 6 x 8 inches on cardstock, paper, unstretched canvas.

Postcards created and exchanged by artists from North East Victoria will be exhibited in a month-long response show at RiverWinds Gallery, Beacon, New York State, with an opening during Beacon’s Second Saturday, when all galleries are open.

“The postcard exchange and reciprocal show at RiverWinds Gallery in New York’s Hudson Valley provide a wonderful opportunity for artists in North East Victoria to broaden our artistic horizons, make a stimulating connection with artists on the other side of the globe and have our artwork exhibited in New York!” Irina Korotkow.

'Postcards from New York's Hudson Valley' will be on show in NEA's Exhibition Gallery (Gallery 2) from Tuesday June 18 to Sunday July 14th. The beautiful postcard images will be for sale between $40 to $50 each. If you would like to participate in the postcard exchange and reciprocal exhibition at RiverWinds Gallery, Beacon, in New York’s Hudson Valley, please contact Irina Korotkow on 0407491756. The 'Postcards to New York - Response Exhibition' is to be held during September in the Exhibitions Gallery.
