Boutwell Draper's latest faux pas

Sydney commercial gallery Boutwell Draper decided to hold an exhibition by young artist Kirsty Bruce. The catch is, the exhibition went ahead without her knowledge, consent or participation. The gallerists had bought a few of her works privately in the hopes of representing her. Things did not go according to plan and the artist chose representation by Milani Gallery instead. Boutwell Draper gallery was left holding the pictures and decided that whacking them on the wall for resale, and calling it a Kirsty Bruce exhibition, was the way to go.
