NEWS FLASH:

THE SILENT AUCTION HAS NOW CLOSED

UNSOLD WORKS WILL BE AVAILABLE AT THE GALLERY

FOR A LIMITED TIME AT THE RESERVE PRICES!

Works originally priced $1,500 - $7,000 have reserve prices $100 - $700.

A percentage of sales will go towards a Murray Bridge Regional Gallery Public Program initiative to be named in Pamela’s honour.

This is a special opportunity to acquire artworks from Pamela’s estate: some widely celebrated seminal works, others rarely seen before.

Pamela Kouwenhoven (1944-2014) was an award-winning SA regional-based artist, whose works feature in major collections at prestigious institutions including the Art Gallery of South Australia and the National Gallery of Australia. Her evocative, multi-media art practice was dedicated to exploring a deep experience of her environment: the natural landscapes of South Australia and the impact of our relationships with them. Born in Moonta South Australia and raised on the West Coast of South Australia, Kouwenhoven spent much of her life in and around arid farming regions and the Adelaide Hills.
