Blink - Did you miss it?

The weekend of March 1-2, saw the auspicious opening of Blink Gallery. Nestled high up in Titirangi bush, overlooking the City of Auckland, The newly appointed Blink Gallery affords El Presidente (aka Burgseye) and colleagues permanent exhibition opportunities.

The opening was timed to coincide with the Waitakere City Artists Open Studios Weekend and despite the monsoon weather, intrepid art lovers came out to view the best and the rest of local art.
Featuring photography, rare glass, mosaic and garden sculpture, print and painting, the eclectic showing had a little something for everyone. Supplemented by the bush sounds of Hella Aesthetics, the weekend was a fantasic way to kick-start Blink Gallery and the artists into 2008 and beyond.

The Reverend would like to thank El Presidente and his delightful First Lady, for the opportunity, the inspiration and their exemplary hospitality, all the artists, both visual and musical involved and the visitors, friends and family who supported this event and made it special. Not forgetting a special thank-you to anyone who purchased something and helped the artists continue doing what they are doing.

Some of the work displayed on the weekend is still on show and anyone wishing to view work or find out more about Blink Gallery, Burgseye Photography and friends, please contact burgseye@slingshot.co.nz .
