The Moral Meaning of Wilderness in Brisbane

Juan Davila opened his show of latest works at Griffith University Art Gallery in Brisbane. Titled "The Moral Meaning of Wilderness". As always with Juan, this is a body of work to be reckoned with, although in a very different way from his in-your-face controversial paintings of the '80's.  Lots of lovely folks at the opening, and of course the ever gentlemanly Juan himself . Definitely worth a visit or two and on until 19 June. Go to kallirolfecontemporaryart.com for insights into Juans work.
Kalli Rolf, Dr.Paul Eliadis (collector and philanthropist) Mark Chapman and Daina Tender
Simon Wright (Director of Griffith Uni Gallery)  addressing throng.
