Laura Mitchell @ Kidogo Arthouse

Event Title: ART EXHIBITION & BOOK LAUNCH "The Elephant of Eastbury".
Participating Artists: Laura Mitchell.

Venue:
Kidogo Arthouse,
Bathers Beach off Mews Rd, Fremantle.

Description:
A child goes nextdoor to see his grandmother, and finds her motionless. Next to her is a tiny bejewelled elephant...and so begins the story of The Elephant of Eastbury.

Please join American/W.Australian artist Laura Mitchell for an exhibiton of her paintings and the book launch based on this poem. This was a result of an international collaboration with Littlefox Press in Melbourne, and U.S. poet Andrew Gates. The images range from literal to metaphorical interpretations of the poem, alluding to the poet's memories and meanings. The event will be opened by noted Melbourne artist Jo Darvall in Perth and by Littlefox Press Publisher and acclaimed academic and writer Christine Matthieu in Melbourne.

Dates: 10 June 2011 to 16 June 2011.
Opening Times: Mon-Fri 9-5, Sa-Su 10-4.
