Come and support locals artists EDMO!, Jake Hope and Davy van de Vusse, as they exhibit their latest series of work "This is the Future that Television Gave Us".

So I had planned on writing this and putting it up days ago, but I didn’t, and then I forgot when it was and thought it was ages away. Then I realised it was this weekend. So here you go. Sorry.

Titirangi is, unless you live there, pretty shit to get to. And if you do live there you’re probably too busy fantasising about leaving to have any time for art.

So you’re forgiven for thinking it’s some kind of political thing, like the G8 Summit but better by 9 world leaders. Funnily enough, if you type it into google it comes up with a liberal-conservative political party from Serbia.

Are you keen to have an exhibition space, but find the idea of an entire gallery too daunting? Well how about just a bit of a gallery?

Well. Satellite Gallery might just have a solution. The Satellite Pods are a set of six cabinets mounted to the wall of the gallery which will each host independent mini-exhibitions, separate from the gallery's main exhibition.

This past Tuesday was the opening for Mark L Watts’ exhibition To be a hero of Nippon. Watts is a photographic artist who digitally manipulates images to create some odd self-portraits. This exhibition features Japanese figurines of anime stereotypes, cute little girls and mecha heroes, all with Watts’ face.

Bob Raw was an engineer who lived in New Lynn for nearly fifty years. He was an amateur photographer who took great pleasure in documenting his family at home. An exhibition of some of these photographs (of which he took hundreds) has been curated and is on display at the Corban Estate Arts Centre.

Over at Satellite Gallery at the moment is an exhibition of work by Andrew Blythe, a self-taught artist based here in Auckland. His work is a mix of pencil, acrylic, charcoal, crayon and even woodblock prints.

As if the joys of Te papa and feasible public transport weren’t enough, here’s another reason to pay the capital a visit. Opening on the 20th of May, Wellington’s Pixel Ink Gallery presents The Corrosive Empire, an exhibition of work by KIRAN-X.

Auckland's best street artists crunched into one space, their own space, for what promises to be a gob-smackingly tasty exhibition of accessibly priced but excessively awesome prints. Yes, I'm a fan of the Cut Collective.
