“Relicts: Roman and Others”

“Relicts: Roman and Others” is a refreshing art exhibition that will appeal to the Italian community, the Russian community and art lovers in general in Sydney.

The exhibition is at the TAP Gallery on the corner of Palmer and Burton Streets, Darlinghurst. The exhibition is open from the 15th to 28th August and “Meet the Artists” is on Saturday 20th August at 5-8pm.

Alex took up art 3 years ago and has had works hung in The Royal Sydney Easter Show, Canberra Royal, Rotary-Camberwell, TAP Gallery,...
