Scott Flanagan: 867 Hours Underground Artist Talk - this Saturday 28 January at 2.00pm
You are warmly invited to our first artist talk and sneak preview of 2012 this Saturday afternoon.
Ex-Christchurch based artist Scott Flanagan, our Summer Gallery Resident, has been working in the Upper and Darkside Galleries at the Blue Oyster since Christmas. The result is an expansive installation traversing media and time. 867 Hours Underground continues Scott's material enquiry started in Korea in 2010 as Sixth International Artist in Residence at the National Museuym of Contemporary Art in Seoul. This exhibition will be Scott's first public installation in New Zealand for over two years and represents a return to a habit of making that was interrupted by the February 22 earthquake in Christchurch which destroyed his studio and all the work inside.
