Narrabri-based artist Brooke Dalton invites the viewer into a fabulous world of interiors with her new series of paintings, conjuring bookshelves and tabletops that burst with a whimsical abundance of collected curios, colourful volumes and a vibrant tangle of orchids, tulips and other spring blooms.

Arranged in a spirit of bohemian eclecticism, these arrangements are rendered by the artist with a loose and energetic style in a perfect pairing of still-life content and painterly form.

Dalton’s delightfully expressive, lushly toned pictures have amassed a loyal following among art lovers, collectors and design enthusiasts who appreciate the decorative flair, eccentric panache and infectious joie de vivre with which she arranges her stylish and romantic vignettes.

Arriving after her immensely popular solo show Moments of Colour, the artist’s new release is a joyous paean to the pleasures of collecting, reading and living in spaces filled with patterned wallpapers, jewel-toned upholstery and freshly cut flowers.

Armidale-based artist Jo White is hitting the road and living the dream with a joyous suite of paintings that immortalise pop-top camper vans Kombis and classic 1970s wagons.

Titled Grey Nomad, White’s latest series has been brought to life with vibrant colour, infectious wit and a sense of wistfulness for the halcyon days of endless Australian summers spent on rambling family beach trips and cruising on wide-open roads.

The exhibition follows White’s celebrated showing in our collaborative Country Style show, her selection for the Salon des Refusés at S.H. Ervin Gallery and a rapturously received, fabulously irreverent installation of small-scale paintings recently presented by Michael Reid Murrurundi.

We are excited to introduce the artist’s beautifully realised new body of work to her growing band of passionate fans and collectors who adore her inimitable spin on Australian cultural touchstones. For more, please email colinesoria@michaelreid.com.au

Beloved sculptor Fliss Dodd returns to Murrurundi with A Gathering of Sorts, bringing a delightful assembly of elegantly formed, intricately detailed and fabulously charismatic figures.

“This collection embodies that moment of convergence, celebrating the unity that binds us to nature, ourselves and each other,” says Dodd, describing her balletic bovine pieces as “independent characters” who slowly come to life as she meticulously shapes them from solid clay slabs.

We are excited to present our first exhibition from Shanghai-born, Naarm/Melbourne-based artist Yan Guo, whose vibrant and playfully constructed paintings can now be previewed by request.

Already garnering significant critical attention and excitement among collectors, Guo’s distinctive practice is propelled by a fascination with constructed environments and the interplay of people and buildings.

Reflecting on the idea that we inhabit spaces of our own creation, Guo skilfully conjures her bold architectural dreamscapes in striking, soft neon hues through mixed-media and airbrush techniques.

The artist’s Michael Reid debut will be a dazzling, conceptually driven collection of paintings whose lively palette makes them perfectly at home within contemporary spaces or as a jolt of electric energy in an otherwise classic abode.

We look forward to welcoming this tremendously talented artist to the gallery and invite collectors to register for an early preview and priority access to Yan Guo’s work by emailing: colinesoria@michaelreid.com.au

The table is set with abundance, eclecticism and free-spirited style in Bethany Saab’s delightful new series of interior scenes.

The Canberra-based artist’s latest release is her first in more than a year, making this a rare and exciting opportunity for collectors to experience and acquire her joyous, expressive and beautifully realised still-life paintings. From kitchen tables and benchtops that teem with produce, accoutrements and glittering glass bottles to shelves festooned with foliage and flowers, Saab’s windows onto the domestic world are enlivened by colour, decorative details and a dazzling interplay of light and shadow.

A fabulous layering of pattern on pattern brings exuberance and optical charge to each painting. In one, the shadow lines cast by a Venetian blind intersect with a tablecloth’s overscale florals, while another sees striped and spotted napery unfurl beside pretty blue-and-white Delftware as organic tangles of lilies, orchids and dahlias spill out of pitchers, pots and glass vessels.

The result is a fabulous paean to the everyday pleasures of cooking, painting and living in a space warmed by books, art, textiles, handmade objects and beautiful blooms.

We are thrilled to announce the return of one of the brightest and most beloved stars in our Eora/Sydney gallery’s stable of represented artists, Lucy Vader, who will present her latest suite of paintings next month.

The Northern Rivers-based artist will be back in Murrurundi next month with Good Stock – a dazzling series of bucolic landscapes dotted with farm animals and expressed through bold, gestural bursts of colour.

Works from Good Stock are available to view and acquire by request before the show’s opening. Please contact danielsoma@michaelreid.com.au to receive a preview catalogue and priority access to Lucy Vader’s new work.
