Simon Williams Exhibition

Simon Williams Exhibition 21 March - 4 April 2013

272 Parnell Road Auckland New Zealand Ph +64 9 3666 045 www.internationalartcentre.co.nz

There’s something special about the work of Dunedin born, Auckland based artist Simon Williams. A special embracing of colour, a special vision of subject matter, a special refinement of style, a brilliant mix of disciplined exuberance resulting in a well established international clientele.

This long awaited solo exhibition of over thirty dazzling works, sees the artist paying attention to new subjects such as New Zealand’s oldest suburb, Parnell, whilst re-visiting others. The depiction of natural scenery remains the most popular genre of art sold worldwide.

As such, the landscapes of Simon Williams afford the viewer a vista or retreat to the natural world - something increasingly sought-after and valued in our busy everyday lives.

We look forward to welcoming you to the gallery and this exhibition of visual refreshment.
