Goulburn Regional Art Gallery is extending an invitation to the opening of an upcoming exhibition that is bound to attract plenty of interest.
At 3pm on Saturday 30th July Mark Tedeschi AM QC is to open SHOOTING AROUND CORNERS, an exhibition of his award winning photographic practice carried out over the last twenty five years.
Mark’s images range from insightful portraits of prominent Australian artists; his compassionate view of the Aboriginal urban communities of Redfern in the 1980’s, domestic interiors and everyday scenes from the streets of Italy, China and New York and Australian outback characters.
Especially intriguing are the images that capitalise on his unique position as both artist and Senior Crown Prosecutor for New South Wales, in which he is able to give a unique insight into the cloistered world of the justice system and the personalities who work within it.
Mark is also expected to talk briefly about his new book Kidnapped, an account of one of Australia’s most notorious criminal cases.
The mood will then then shift from fine photography to equally fine music with his son Simon taking over with the Simon Tedeschi Supper Concert, expected to take place around 4.30 pm.
Simon will perform a variety of his favourite tunes on the gallery’s baby grand piano. The audience is then invited to enjoy supper which will include partaking of a delicious, casual regional produce grazing table set up for the occasion.
Entry to the opening of the photographic exhibition is free. Tickets to the Piano Recital and supper are $50 plus booking fee. It is recommended to book if you are interested in attending as this event is expected to sell out quickly.
Tickets can be booked by phoning the Gallery on 48234494 or by email artgallery@goulburn.nsw.gov.au
