The Corporate Vault - Exhibition Announcement: Three Stories

The Corporate Vault announces the Three Stories Exhibition

The limelight is about to descend on the stories of three women artists who, with Conchita Carambano, will enter centre stage in an exhibition with The Corporate Vault in May.

Panchali Sheth is of Indian background, trained and practiced in the tradition of Western Contemporary Expressionism. She utilises a visual language with which we are familiar, to invite us into a sensual and emotional experience of her rich cultural heritage. One painterly canvas will dance with the colourful fertility of a midsummer festival in its’ ecstasy. The ominous work beside it will envelope us in the meditational woodsmoke of an evening in an ancient city.

Suzanna Lang returns to her palette and canvas in a new studio with new stories to tell. Her distinctive encrusted surfaces and icy patinas are in themselves a beautiful justification for the witnessing of her work.

The Three Stories of Carambano, Lang and Sheth opens on May 4th at Tom Dunne Gallery Sydney.

Italy's Modern Art Revival: Italian Arts Culture in Australia Today

The Corporate Vault is amassing a collection of art works that are gathering anything but dust. This Art Gallery of the new era has captured treasures, as if from secret storage, and is bringing them to light. This year begins in romantic dialogue with Bellagio, a historic village on the edge of the Lago di Como in Italy. Resident Artist Maurice Bekeart has created a collection of tesselated panels in heavily worked papers glistening with shellac and resembling articulated sheets of ancient velum traced with the geometries and motifs of a mysterious communication.

These rich Italian contributions are met by Australian painter and Sculptor Conchita Carambano whose work has been selectively gathered by the Corporate Vault to illuminate the theme of Romance, Ruins and Re Invention. A series of potent paintings on the subject of Pompeii are amongst her most contemporary and courageous. Beside these works are raised a collection of her recent sculpture which in their idiosyncratic freedom,resemble the toys of a royal child. They are playful and elegant assemblages that foretell the motifs in her paintings and gradually educate us in a new language of symbols, entirely her own.

Carambano's gorgeous oil paintings portray forms as powerful monoliths, like the torrs of Stonehenge poised in relationship and embedded in a gentille layering of pigments and seams of colour.

The Corporate Vault illuminates another artist in their February exhibition. Photographic collages by Anna Harpley embellish a perspective of European artistic culture in sumptuous and surreal fusions of fabric, stone, sky and water. Figures are poised in visionary landscapes embedded with the relics of cultural heritage exemplified by Italy and the Italians.

This exhibition and collection is surely a romantic adventure!

Investing in Prints: Silkscreens, Lithographs and Closed Edition Etchings

Australian Printmaking - a Great Place to start a collection

Prints such as Limited Edition Lithographs and Etchings are a great way to start small in Art market investing.

Angela Hayson is a well established Australian Artist now working with The Corporate Vault. Angela is renown for her striking woodcut and print making technique.

She creates these remarkable images from original works which are rarely seen. The Corporate Vault is lucky enough to have a stunning example of her original work. It will be featured on the Corporate Vault Australian site shortly along with her limited edition prints inspired by the Australian bush and our unique botany.

Angela is well collected and her work ranges from $800 to $20,000 so it is affordable and growing in value along with her reputation as a respected Australian artist and leading print maker.

For Love & Money - Art Investment Strategies

For Love & Money is a forum about smart investing in Contemporary Art pieces and finding a balance between art we love and maximising investment potential - aesthetics vs long term financial gain. Have your questions answered and stay tuned for trends and news in the art market locally and overseas.

News Excerpt:

Exhibitions are a great way to research and assess new and established artists. See the works in situ and let the gallery do the work for you - then get a consultant to guide you through to selection and acquisition.

For example The coming Ruins Romance and Reinvention exhibition in February will feature a range of Italian and Australian artists - some emerging and some well established from an investment context. This lends itself to both serious investors, art and culture lovers and first time investors alike.

Just as new art will be on sale at a lower cost, pieces such as the Arthur Boyd "Tuscan Series" will be available for serious Boyd collectors - reportedly the last available on the open market.

So as a result the exhibition poses a great opportunity to see some beautiful art, some very affordable - some not so affordable, but an excellent opportunity to learn and see what others in the Art Industry are doing!
