In AF1 will be A search for the real by Moram.

Moram is an abstract painter who lives and works in St. Leonards. He paints in oils with a strong and colourful improvisational technique reminiscent of the Abstract expressionists.

The title is taken from an essay by Hans Hoffmann of the same name.

All proceeds from this exhibition after gallery costs will be donated to UNICEF.

In AF2 will be work by Armenian artist Ponchi (Armen Proyan).

From 2000 to 2003, Ponchi taught at the Intergraphics Art College in Greece.

In 2009, after 12 years of absence, Ponchi moved back to Armenia.
