ARMIDALE artist Nick Levy will feature in a new exhibition at the Armidale Aboriginal Cultural Centre and Keeping Place.
Levy said he was still in the initial stages of his creative development and was experimenting with different styles.
The individuality of his work, however, is already producing positive results and he is set to become a leading light in the art world.
Levy’s artistic career was launched at the Aboriginal Cultural Centre and Keeping Place.
The centre operates a program which selects artists with promise and, through a series of professional workshops and exhibitions, launches them into the professional art arena.
Levy’s Coastal Creatures exhibition will feature alongside three others, including Nathan Dawson’s “Conglomeration”.
Dawson was born and raised in Glen Innes. He recently learnt that he was of Aboriginal descent, but does not know his tribe. He began drawing after discovering MAD magazines when he was 10 years old. Since then, drawing and producing art has been with him at every stage of his life.
“I like the freedom that drawing gives you, a freedom to create anything that you like, things that don’t exist in reality can become reality in a drawing,” Levy said.
The public is invited to the opening of the exhibitions, along with a photographic and an artefact exhibition at 6pm tomorrow at the Armidale Aboriginal Cultural Centre and Keeping Place.
