A bit about us and Artsdiary

In our day jobs, I am an advertising photographer, and Judith is a stylist and food specialist. (Link to our work website.) We live in Westmere with our cat Henry.

In October 2010, after experiencing some difficulty arranging an "arts tour" for friends visiting from Australia, we decided to launch a "one-stop-shop" on the web to make it easier to see at a glance what's showing in visual arts exhibitions throughout Auckland. Artsdiary went live two weeks later on 01/11/2010.

We aim to be fully comprehensive and up-to-date, in a visually stimulating format.

On the "EXHIBITION" page we post details from over 70 public, art school and dealer galleries throughout the region.

"BEEN THERE" features my photographs, mainly from exhibition openings. These show artworks in context, including visitors and their interaction with the works and each other. To date, I have visited over 1000 exhibitions, and posted photographs from most of these. These have developed into an invaluable social record, showing the vibrancy and rich diversity of the contemporary Auckland arts scene.

We hope you enjoy our website, and recommend Artsdiary to others.
