April May 2019 GSG Newsletter Gecko Studio Gallery Newsletter April May 2019 2018 Gecko Studio Gallery presents Australian linocut artist Aileen Brown, born 1946, is a recognised print maker on the national scene. Her linocuts are distinguished by a particular and unique technical expertise. Aileen reaffirms the 1920’s practice of producing prints coloured from the block rather than hand coloured. This painstaking process has sometimes included as many as twelve different applications on each print with each needing to be situated exactly to ensure its perfect placement within the overall design. Aileen has had many solo exhibitions since 1986 as well as some book illustrations. Her works can be found in print collections at Bendigo Regional Gallery, State Libraries of Queensland, Victoria and New South Wales, Museum of Melbourne, Deakin and Melbourne University, and National Library of Australia. She also offers intensive linocutting classes at her Melbourne studio. Aileen’s linocuts demonstrate mastery of colour, composition and design, coupled with sensitivity and wit. Each limited edition linocut print is signed and numbered by Aileen Brown. Aileen also regularly exhibits at Artemis Gallery in South Yarra. This will be Aileen’s fourth exhibition at Gecko Studio Gallery - starting with exhibition #6 in 2007, exhibition #30 in 2009, exhibition #54 in 2011 and exhibition #82 in 2013. Enough water under the bridge - time to see what Aileen is creating now! Go to Aileen’s webpage (https://www.aileenbrown.com/ ) where she has lots of text and images showing the technical side to her linocut printmaking. 1 Aileen Brown 35. Dancing Hare. 2018. 40.

Since renovating during winter of 2017 to install HeadQuarters cafe into the mix, we have worked extra hard to ensure Gecko has remained vibrant and unique, and we now feel we are ready to let go of the reins to pursue our art and artisan careers on a more full-time basis. Whilst we will be sad to say goodbye to the business and property, we intend to keep our framing business operating from our home in Fish Creek East....along with new ventures yet to be realised. Below is the wording scripted for the real estate advert....please feel free to share this around… ‘Situated in the heart of Fish Creek at 15 Falls Road, this unique property which has been the home of Gecko Studio Gallery for the past 12 years, is now available for sale. Sitting alongside the Fish Creek Memorial Hall, and opposite the local village park and playground, it is the ideal location. This stand alone commercial property houses a vibrant and busy contemporary art gallery with a recently installed cafe featuring a class 2 kitchen, a fully renovated attached residence, stunning private garden, separate studio workshop, storeroom with garage and a covered carport. The property is on mains water plus two 20,000 litre water tanks plumbed to laundry and toilets, a 3kw solar system, reverse cycle aircons in gallery, cafe and residence and a highly efficient Nectre wood heater. Along with a large glass shopfront entrance on the main street and a garden courtyard side entrance with an all access door, there is rear access to the property from Ryan St. The attached residence which has been operating as short term tourist accommodation in recent years - known as the ArtHouse, is a stylish, light filled modern cottage with beautifully maintained private garden. Gecko Studio Gallery has been instrumental as a key business in the artistic and cultural transformation of this small town, and is renowned for its presentation of quality art exhibitions, local artisan made wares and an extensive range of quality art materials. With the inclusion of the cafe after extensive renovations in July 2017, it is also a highly popular meeting place for locals and visitors alike. Offered as a going concern, with or without stock, equipment and fittings, this is a unique opportunity to make that lifestyle change and become part of a wonderful small and vibrant community.’ Kerry and Michael ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 4 “Headquarters” Café news Winter is well on the way.

Gippsland is located in eastern Victoria and extends from the Great Dividing Range in the north, through rich and productive timber and agricultural grazing land, to the Bass Strait coastline in the south and from the New South Wales border in the east to the Latrobe Region and Phillip Island in the west and south-west. The Region comprises the LGAs of Bass Coast, East Gippsland, Latrobe, South Gippsland, Wellington and Baw Baw Shire The Region covers an area of almost 40,000 sq kms, or 17.5% of the total area of Victoria.

  • Nyora to Leongatha Rail Corridor
    Nyora to Leongatha Rail Corridor - The Facts South Gippsland Shire Council is conscious that there has been a lot of misinformation circulating about the future of the Nyora to Leongatha rail corridor. Here are some of the facts: • There is no intention from the Victorian Government to return passenger rail services to South Gippsland. • Any suggestion that the creation of a tourist railway will pre-empt the return of a passenger rail service are false. • There seems to be some in the community who believe that there is a choice between a train and a rail trail. This is simply false. The only choice is between a neglected, weed infested strip of land and a rail trail that will be used by locals and tourists alike. • VicTrack has leased the former rail corridor to South Gippsland Shire Council for a period of 18 years for the land to be used as a rail trail between Leongatha and Nyora. • The lease does not permit the use of the corridor for a tourist rail. • VicTrack has advised that if the land is required for transport purposes in the future, the agreement will be revisited. • Any suggestion that the existing rail infrastructure is in a good state of repair is incorrect, as evidenced by the demise of the previous tourist train. • Removing the redundant rail infrastructure and constructing a rail trail will not create a barrier to the return of a passenger rail service in the future. • The Great Southern Rail Trail extension is supported by (amongst others): • South Gippsland Shire Council • Bass Coast Shire Council • Cardinia Shire Council • Casey City Council • Wellington Shire Council • Korumburra Business Association • Korumburra Round Table • Leongatha Business Group • Loch Community Development Association • Destination Gippsland • Regional Development Victoria • VicTrack South Gippsland Shire Council Acting CEO, Bryan Sword said Council staff are focussed on getting the best outcome for the whole community.
