The show has been well received by the local public, visiting and local art critics and collectors so if you haven’t had a chance to see it in person and are visiting from interstate or overseas please let us know when you arrive at the beach. If you can’t make it to Perth you can see the sculptures on-line through our Virtual Tour – though one of these days you should make the trip as it is a special exhibition space, so different in character to the Bondi and Aarhus sites.

The Founding Director of the exhibition, David Handley, is putting himself on the line by listing here some of his favourite sculptures in this year’s show including (in no order):

• Zero Higashida’s Inochi

• Leonard Sabol’s Border

• Peter Lundberg’s Wuyi

• Alessandra Rossi’s Comfort Zone

• Tania Spencer’s Thought Process

• Lou Lambert’s Red Herring

• Tony Jones’ Lighhouse

• Koichi Ogino Camel Country; and

• Tony Davis Chimney Totem
