Opening on Thursday 27 October 6.30pm with a performance by Karin Hofko at 7pm followed by live music by Auckland’s Matt 'Flick' Brennan).

This survey exhibition showcases sculpture, video installation, performance and photography by artists Markus and Karin Hofko. A key installation in the show is Markus’ Islands, a series of 11 floating miniature lands.

“On top we find little people in strange but familiar situations. Snapshots of random everyday scenarios twisted into the obscure, they seem like riddles,” says Markus.

His often quirky work incorporates philosophical, filmic and even cartoon allusions and is infused with elements of pop culture and graphic design.

The Hofkos have previously shown work at the Centre Pompidou (Paris), Germany, Vietnam and America.
