EarthDiverse bus trip to the Auckland Art Gallery

todd from EarthDiverse

Enjoy Art? Join EarthDiverse, and local artists, writers and lecturers Peter Dornauf, MA and Norman Franke, PhD for a wonderful day excursion to the Auckland Art Gallery and a guided tour of the Gothic Art exhibition entitled GOTHIC RETURNS: FUSELI TO FOMINSON. Loosely termed ‘gothic’ the exhibition embraces everything from horror stories to hauntings and everything in between. Hitchcock was a master at conjuring these demons in film, but artists from the romantic period through to the present have dipped their brush into that dark inky world and danced with the devil of the ghoulish, the spooky and the downright unnerving. Participants can choose to explore some artwork of the AAG's permanent collection, particularly the restored Brueghel the Younger painting ('The Village Fair') and can have some free time to explore other parts of the museum, Albert Park and the near-by shops such as Smith & Caughey's or Unity Books.
• When: Saturday 23 March 2024.
• Bus departs 9:00am from in front of the EarthDiverse Centre at 401 Anglesea Street and returns around 6:00pm.

Price includes round-trip bus transport from Hamilton and a guided tour of the Exhibition. Lunch is on your own.
