Jan Jorgensen's Changing Places - a wonderful success!

A big congratulations to Jan Jorgensen for the overwhelming success of her latest solo exhibition, Changing Places - Brisbane, which closed last weekend at KiLN.

A dozen thrilled collectors are now the proud new owners of a gorgeous, jewelly Jan Jorgensen original, and several more eagerly await the arrival of their specially commissioned piece of Brisbane, hot off the easel in the coming weeks.

Jan heads off shortly on a well deserved European holiday - thank you Jan and bon voyage!

Tom, Danielle and Oskar bask in Jan's reflected glory on opening night Saturday 4 July 2009.
