My Funny Valentine

My funny valentine
Sweet comic valentine
You make me smile with my heart
Your looks are laughable
Unphotographable
Yet you’re my favourite work of art

At 528 Hz, love is said to reach us through music.

Like the jazz standard interpreted, recorded and enriched (mainly) by numerous musicians (Fitzgerald, Sinatra, Baker), love too endures through art, contributing myth, nuance, and an evolution of form to the frequency (hopefully) of our spiritual connections.

‘A love’ can keep you making, generating. Expression manifested in clay, paint, and screen-based work, where the material and abstract meet.

Join us for My Funny Valentine, a group show curated by Louise Klerks in collaboration with Arts Project Australia, showcasing an eclectic group of Australian and New Zealand artists engaged with love in all its forms: adoration, obsession, its pull – the maddening of it all.

See Matt Arbuckle, Chris Bowes, Brigid Hanrahan, Henry Holder, Chris Mason, Esther Olsson and Daniel Pace in a spontaneous, heartfelt cuddle puddle.

Celebrate with us this 14th of February at Missing Persons’ first short-duration show of 2020.

Dates: 15 until 16 February 2020. Attend on Facebook
Hours: Saturday 12:00–6:00pm and Sunday 12:00–4:00pm
