Logan Art Gallery exhibitions

New gallery displays highlight storytelling skills

A first-hand insight into the new round of exhibitions at Logan Art Gallery will be delivered by two of the exhibiting artists on opening night.

Sha Sarwari and Henri van Noordenburg will discuss the stories behind their exhibitions from 5.30pm on Friday, June 16.

The free artists’ talks will be held prior to the exhibition opening at 6pm by City of Logan Mayor Darren Power.

Sha and Henri’s works are two exhibitions on display at the gallery between Friday, June 16 and Saturday, July 22.

Dutch-born Henri has shared his interest in storytelling and highlighted the effects of global warming on the natural environment through his exhibition Still Water.

Brisbane-based visual artist Sha was born in Afghanistan and has used his personal experiences of living in Australia for the past 23 years to tell the stories of refugees and asylum seekers in the exhibition Archaeology of Memory.

This gallery round also includes:

  • Walk gently – a collaborative exhibition by Rochedale South artist Rachael Lee and printmaker Gillian Richards using a range of printing techniques to explore how people can live more harmoniously with the environment.
  • World Environment Day posters which are a collection of artworks by young local artists.

The exhibition program is complemented by additional artist talks along with printing and sculpture workshops for adults and children.

Bookings for the exhibition opening and all workshops are recommended and can be made on the Logan Arts website

The gallery, on the corner of Jacaranda Ave and Wembley Rd, Logan Central, is open Tuesday to Saturday (10am to 5pm). Entry is free.
