art consultation
We bring years of experience and a discerning eye to large scale projects, including finding artworks that will deliver your large-scale projects to the highest possible level. From 2018-2019, Parker Gallery assisted in the selection of artworks in Falcon Brae Villa, a luxury lodge in the Motueka Valley near Nelson, New Zealand. The focus was to promote artists local to the Top of the South Island, so that visitors feel a sense of the region during their stay. The project involved art selection and procurement, right through to artwork placement and installation prior to opening.
Our services include assistance with choosing artworks, curation once in situ and professional hanging of artworks, Please enquire here if we can assist you.
SPRING SHOW: ART & FASHION UNITING FOR HOSPICE
The Spring Show fundraiser is an annual event hosted by Shine Design Store & Parker Gallery in Nelson, NZ. Each year, the Spring Show ticketed event has consisted of a runway show (organised by Jo Menary at Shine) and an art auction (organised by Leonie at Parker Gallery). The runway event combines the efforts of local businesses and sponsors including ELK, Black Matter Jewellery & Charmaine Reveley.
In 2019, the art auction included forty artists from Nelson, Tasman, Marlborough & Wellington who each created an artwork that reflected their own personal style. These highly respected local artists generously donated their time, materials and expertise to allow 100% of proceeds to go towards our fundraising efforts. In 2019, the Spring Show Fundraiser donated a total of $31,000 to the Nelson Tasman Hospice.
ART arrangement
Whether you’re moving house or have lived with your artworks for a number of years, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed by the placement of artworks. There is an art to choosing works that fit a space properly and then hanging them so that they can be enjoyed to the best of their abilities.
The rearrangement of existing artworks also offers an inexpensive way to completely rejuvenate a space, both in a domestic and professional setting. We are well-versed in art curation and can offer a fresh set of eyes to your art collection. We will also arrange for a professional to come and hang the artworks for you. Please enquire here if we can assist you.
