Reverie Projects, in association with the Villa Alba Museum, is devoted to establishing a dialogue between the historic house in Melbourne’s Kew and contemporary art practitioners. This dialogue takes the form of a series of exhibitions in which the house acts as subject and muse.
Reverie Projects: Who We Are
Reverie Projects is a collective of artists and designers devoted to establishing a relationship between the contemporary art community and the Villa Alba Museum, the historic 19th Century house in Kew, Melbourne. Since 2009, we have been working with the Museum to foster this relationship through a series
of exhibitions that invite artists to creatively respond to the house and its history.
Reverie Projects was formed out of a desire to introduce the house to new generations of artists and ensure continued support for the museum. Through our exhibitions we aim to promote the house and the efforts of the Board of Villa Alba Museum Inc. and it’s volunteers. Because the Board relies on
public donation and grant applications alone, it is vital that they continue to be supported. Without the continued dedication of the Board we would lose this historic national treasure.
The Reverie Team: Sarah Parker // Isobel Parker Philip // Daryl Prondoso // Marius Foley // Villa Alba Museum Inc.
Narrative Space, our forthcoming exhibition, will run from Friday 25th to Sunday 27th of May 2012. On Saturday 26th May at 1:00pm we will officially launch the event, followed by a Jazz Afternoon featuring a performance by the renowned Fem Belling Trio.
Artist Talks: Sunday 27th May 2:00-4:00 pm
