Autumn Goings On at MREAM

Over the past month MREAM Gallery has played host to not one ...but TWO exhibitions!

The FEMS crew put on a grand opening for the launch of their FEMS Zine.
The accompanying exhibition included works by several artists whose work featured in the first edition of the zine and it was fantastic to see so many new young faces in the space.

The FEMS Exhibition featured an interactive artwork which invited viewers to tear a page from an old thesaurus and create a work of art on the page - inspired by text thereon

To conclude the month of March "Unframed Untamed" took place in the MREAM gallery.  The show featured a collection of unframed works by members of MREAM - spanning sculpture, installation, textile art, oil and watercolour painting, printmaking, photo collage and drawing. Several artworks were sold on the evening and a generous spread was devoured by those in attendance at the opening.

Congratulations and many thanks are owed to Vonne for her efforts in co-ordinating both shows in the MREAM Gallery.  Much gratitude is also owed to Vonne's team of helpers!

Remember, if you are interested in having a solo or group show at MREAM Gallery (of 1 week or even 4 weeks) please don't hesitate to get in touch with us via email mreamblog@gmail.com

FEM Zine Launch & Exhibition

This weekend MREAM Studios & Gallery will play host to its first ever zine launch!

Organised by MREAM Artist, Vonne Beyer, the "FEMS" zine launch and exhibition will open this Saturday evening at 5.00pm at MREAM Studios & Gallery, 32 Hampstead Road, Maidstone VIC 3012.  Thereafter, the exhibition will run for one week (3-6pm daily) until Saturday 21st March.

"FEMS" stands for Females for Equality Making Stuff and is a zine made by women, about women and for women.

All are invited to attend the opening!

For the uneducated, "zine" is a term used to describe an independent (maga)zine or publication with a much smaller print run and alternative content including stories, poems, articles, artwork and photography.  Zines are a refreshing change from mainstream print media!

Ballarat Road, 2015

If you haven’t already made the trip across west to Sunshine Art Spaces Gallery to see Judith Leuenberger's show "Remote Edges of Sunshine" ...then you’d better pull your socks up and get a hurry on!

The final day of Judith’s show is this Friday 13^th March 2015.

Judith is currently a resident artist at Deer Park Art Spaces but is also a member of MREAM.  Works in her current exhibition are semi-abstract in nature and explore “overlooked and hidden scenes of urban beauty” from throughout Melbourne’s western suburb of Sunshine.

Sunshine Art Spaces Gallery is located at 2 City Place, Sunshine 3020 (very close to Sunshine Train Station) but please call the gallery in advance to clarify opening hours.
