The Venter Gallery team had a fantastic day at their show at Government House, a fund raiser for the Art Gallery of Greater Victoria. This was the first time Government House has been included. Over 1200 art lovers visited to say hi and have a look at the Venters' work. Kathy exhibited her Coup d'Oeil series of six sculptures in the foyer while in the ballroom, Deon was represented with five large scale works from the Missing, Last Supper and The Order of Things series - exhibited in Victoria for the first time. A big shout out to our friends and clients who came by to say hi and offer their support. When the closing bell rang we were invited to gather in the Lieutenant Governor's lounge for a welcome glass of wine and relax before the task of packing up the work for the return trip home. We had a special treat of being shown the magnificent painted desk in the Lieutenant Governor's office, designed as a large 'bent box' made by Arthur Vickers, and shown to us by the artist himself! We are grateful for having been invited and wish to thank all the organizers and volunteers who made it happen. Thank you! We've put together a little album of pics, click here to view them on our facebook page.
