Thursday 18 November 2004

Commerce and art cross-over cleverly in the new Kerikeri gallery Indigo.
Owners Jan Dirk E. Groot and Marga Brakenhoff of Holland will use the space for exhibition, functions, performances and as a base for their interior design consultancy.
The inaugural show features works by Co van Assema, Fane Flaws, Mark Graver, Joachim Kreitmair and Fran Leitch.
Jan Dirk E. Groot was formerly creative director communications and founder/director of an art publishing company, and a photography and film agency in Holland.
Marga Brakenhoff was founder/director of a public relations and publicity agency, and director of the Dutch Press Institute for Furniture and Interior Design.
The couple intend to promote New Zealand art in Europe and to get European art into New Zealand.
