Noosa Mayor Clare Stewart will officially open The Noosa Art and Craft Association’s (NACA) latest exhibition Still Fired Up on Friday 3 June at 6pm.
Still Fired Up will be open at Wallace House, Noosaville from 4 June to 28 June, 9am to 3pm.
The exhibition explores the rich art tradition of the still life genre, which originates from ancient Egyptian and Greco-Roman art, and has inspired artists for centuries.
“Here we have combined the artistic interpretation of subjects with objects of inspiration. All pottery and ceramic works in this exhibition have been fired in our own kiln on site at Wallace House,” NACA president Gabi Dick said.
“For some artists, their practice reflects the traditions of naturalism and realism, while others have taken a more expressive approach where the work is not intended to illustrate a subject exactly, but to communicate ideas,” she said.
Demonstrating we are indeed still fired up about art, Noosa Arts and Crafts Association is proud to present work in the tradition of still life, juxtaposed with objects of inspiration – fine ceramics, pottery and decorative mosaics – all from our own artists.
A treasure trove of craft and artwork is on sale in the shop and a special pop-up cafe will be operating in Wallace House.
