MARINA ROLFE has a solo exhibition with The City of Melbourne opening tomorrow at Gallery at City Library, which is just down Flinders Lane from ARC ONE.
'Marina Rolfe: The Encounter' is a journey into an imaginary realm, with the implied presence of nature.
See the show from 10-28 May at Gallery at City Library, 253 Flinders Lane, Naarm Melbourne. Contact ARC ONE for more information about Rolfe's absorbing paintings.
NOW REPRESENTING
We are thrilled to announce that Marina Rolfe is now represented by ARC ONE.
Rolfe straddles the line between intuition and decisiveness. Every mark, every colour in her work feels selected and deliberate, yet they impart an overwhelming feeling of spontaneity.
This powerful combination of opposites—control and improvisation—is the result of Rolfe's well-honed skills and her superb visual intelligence.
To request more information on Rolfe, including details of currently available works, see the link in our bio.

OPENING TONIGHT
NATURE KNOT: what does it mean to be tied, bound, connected, tangled with nature?
An exhibition of work tethered to the natural world. Humans create knots to secure and to hold onto things tightly. But the natural world hates constraints and resists our desire to ensnare.
Featuring ARC ONE Gallery’s Cyrus Tang, Honey Long & Prue Stent, joined by Marina Rolfe, the 2022 recipient of the ARC ONE Artist Opportunity
All welcome. OPEN from 6PM, Wednesday, 8 February.
ARC ONE Director Fran Clark and Artist Marina Rolfe.
ARC ONE Gallery teamed up with the VCA to offer an Artist Opportunity to an outstanding graduate from the 2022 VCA Masters or Bachelor of Fine Art (Honours) Program. We are thrilled to announce that Marina Rolfe has been awarded the ARC ONE Artist Opportunity.
This opportunity grants Rolfe the chance to exhibit at ARC ONE in early 2023, and receive mentorship from Director Fran Clark and Associate Director Elizabeth Errol. When Fran and Elizabeth selected Rolfe for this award, they were impressed by her attentive and sensitive landscape painting, and excited by her tactile painted surfaces.
The artist popped in this week to visit and set plans in motion for our group show in February, Nature Knot.
