The Goldfields Printmakers

An exciting new group of artists living in the Goldfields region of Victoria, Australia, who predominantly work in field of printmaking.

James Pasakos, a Printmaking lecturer at the Federation University of Australia, Ballarat, was a co-founder of the group “This group was born from an idea; a ‘Eureka’moment that I had whilst participating in the IMPACT 7 international printmaking conference in Melbourne in 2011. My concept was to bring together printmakers from the historic and significant Goldfields region and to provide a portal through which dialogue and diversity can evolve in a supportive and enriching environment”.

The Goldfields Printmakers exhibition was first displayed at the Art Gallery of Ballarat, May-July 2013 and in August 2013 travelled to  Dundee, Scotland, for IMPACT 8. Having crossed and re-crossed borders

Art at Wharepuke is pleased to now present the show to a New Zealand audience.
