12 September 2006Annandale Galleries
When one first encounters the work of ROGER ACKLING the response is inevitably puzzling. Bits of wood with burned images on white walls. The label lists "sunlight on wood" as the medium. Sunlight on wood? Now the curiosity is aroused. The geometric burn marks are actually thousands of individual burn marks made by directing the suns rays through a magnifying glass. Ackling's relationship with the open air begins with finding his driftwood supports on long walks usually by the sea near his home in Norfolk. ... read more

Kevin Malloy: Press Release
August 2005Annandale Galleries
Saccadic Spaces is the latest exhibition of new works by Kevin Malloy. Over the last five years Annandale Galleries has had the pleasure of showcasing Malloy's work as it flourished from pieces austere in their execution and feel, featuring brighter colours amongst muted greys, to paintings that are truly celebratory in nature, featuring thousands of multicolour circles that, rather than hiding amongst subdued tones now spring forth, their presence exaggerated by the white disks that illuminate the fresh joyful colours. ... read more
