Harvey Schiller and Friends have been exhibiting at the Rising Sun at Kensington for about 18 months. The group puts on a special exhibition for each Fringe and SALA Festival.

The group came together after Harvey exhibited twice at the Rising Sun. Harvey was offered the walls by owner Tom Savis and he and the group have had their artwork up on the walls ever since.

The group grew out of the relationships Harvey established with a number of photographers who were member of the SA Central Flickr group, a social website for photographers.

These people are the core of the group and represent a cross section of photographical and artistic styles, ranging from a technically perfect travel, landscape and portraiture (Charlie Lawrence, Paul Tait and Mandi Whitten) to the more abstract and surreal Janine Matheson and Harvey Schiller). John Goodridge straddles the two camps.

This exhibition also includes an exquisite abstract work by painter Monika Morgenstern and a collage series by Gary Campbell.

Subject matter is varied and something is sure to appeal to most.

The exhibition is on the walls of the Rising Sun Hotel in Kensington one of Adelaide’s oldest pubs. It’s red brick and blue-stone walls offer a wonderful historic counterpoint to the modern artworks displayed.
