Gallery Shop Exhibition
Benalla Art Gallery and Arts Project Australia proudly present Ethereal Portals — a Summer Gallery Shop exhibition by Fulli Andrinopoulos.
Fulli Andrinopoulos is an established artist whose work is characterised by soft, floating circular forms and saturated colours that exude an intensity through the build-up of dense layers of rich pigment.
Her small-scale paintings are tactile and ethereal, embodying an emotive quality akin to that of artist Mark Rothko. Recent textile works on ink-soaked fabric feature dense applications of coloured thread. Her collections – often presented en masse in grids or floating across a wall – are intimate, with a sense of transcendence and the unknown.
Andrinopoulos has worked at Arts Project since 1991. Public collections include Monash University Museum of Art. Her work is also held in national and international private and corporate collections.
Fulli Andrinopoulos: Ethereal Portals coincides with Benalla Art Gallery’s staging of Illusion and Gravity: 1960s and 70s painting and sculpture from the artist’s collection, an exhibition by Ron Robertson-Swann.
