Tony Johnston
Rawene - Three Fold
12 Oct - 24 Nov
Tony's work is totally original', states art collector Warwick Brown.
'The number one thing on my list of art appreciation is originality. When I blundered into Tony's first show I was knocked out, because I had never seen anything like it. The incorporation of found material, use of writing in a very imaginative fashion and as far as I know he was the first person in NZ doing this rubbing back technique'.
'I spent an hour looking at the show' recalls Warwick. 'I should have said I'll buy it all.
I should have done, but i didn't!'
People ask me how do you select work to buy? How can you tell if it is good? Simple answer is: If grabs me by the throat and keeps speaking to me, I have to have it.
