We are still hanging around in the 50's and 60`s for inspiration, the ceramic lights have a touch of nostalgia with some intricate detailing transforming the shapes into a glowing sculpture that suits many spaces especially apartments with its warm romantic ambience. So new they don`t have a name left to right first three 360mm h x 110 dia, far right 340mm h x 145 dia

The Arts Menagerie doing the unthinkable..............for some We`ve been fortunate in the last 35 years, without the orders, commissions, contracts, contacts, knowledge, retail outlets, artshows, customers, the goodwill and support of countless people none of it would have been possible. Its time for fresh thinking as the economy falters at the mere sniffle of another analyst who still don`t want to remember GREED of the few got us into this mess. Students are graduating every year, they really don`t have much of a chance and some never even get to start in a career they trained for. The creative industries seem to be that much harder A few weeks ago we set up an Arts Organisation to be run with the help of other creatives, utilising our Ponsonby studio and exhibition spaces, run events, website, workshops, share our knowledge and collaborate with other creatives. Whether an arts student, professional, part time craft worker, a retired opera singer or someone who just needs to connect with their creative side.
The unthinkable This is about giving something back, The Arts Menagerie is to be free to all. This is no off the cuff idea, over the years I have been fortunate to meet entrepreneurs, academics, strategists, creatives who have shared their ideas and encouragement. Those people as well as our existing Customers, Retailer buyers, Art show organisers and Designers who specify our products, helps makes this idea possible. As I am also realist To the tiny minority out there, of the small minded New Zealand knocking machine..............don`t. Its a very small country. What better way to celebrate setting up The Arts Mengerie than with a photoshoot! With a wide range of creatives it was always going to be more than just the usual group photo. Just call it French Steampunk Circus with a touch of Glam and serious intent. We are planning more soon, stay in touch on Facebook or Meetup |
