It’s always great to see the NGV studio space’s walls covered in amazing art, and Chaz Bojorquezs show, LA Hand Styles, featured wonderfully on them. We sauntered between this show and Jasper Wongs throughout last Saturday evening, and we were totally spoilt for imagery. We actually managed to sit down and have a really great
READ MORELast Saturday, after the first of the Carbon forums, we headed down to the twin-header shows from Jasper Wong and Chaz Bojorquez. It was great to be able to see Jaspers work here in Melbourne. After having interviewed him the other week, we weren’t too sure what to expect (given a missing suitcase debacle) but
READ MOREThis Friday brings a collection of up and coming artists, many of them in their final year at uni, in a show that fits their demographic nicely. To use a popular vernacular, (even though we don’t necessarily believe in such labels) all of these artists predominantly fall within the realm of “Generation Z“, and, as
READ MOREThere has been a lot of talk as to this auction, much of it divided. Whatever opinion you find yourself leaning towards on the sale of the Andy Mac Collection, one thing is for sure – its a damn fine display of art. We actually decided a while ago that we wouldn’t be covering any
READ MORESo this dropped into our inbox the other day, and after reading it two or three times over, we think we’ve managed to work it out – this is a show about the weird shit that constitutes reality.

Stopping briefly along the way to check out TwoOnes awesome new piece, we arrived to a show in full swing. Colour seems to have been the order of the evening, and Beastmans show had

We headed to Backwoods for the first part of the
READ MOREVandal Spruce is an old favourite of ours, who we havent seen too much from recently – so we were pretty happy this morning when we saw that the ‘Spruce isn’t only back in action, but that there’s also a solo show coming up this week that is sure to be pretty damn interesting. Holographics?
READ MORETonight we got down to RTIST Gallery in Prahran to see the culmination of all the hard work that DAL East and Faith 47 have been putting in for their show, Antenna Gardens. Though we couldn’t hang around for too long on account of a damn flu, we had a great chance to check out
READ MOREThe other night, I had the pleasure to drop in at RTIST Gallery to check out the preparations for DAL East and Faith47s show, Antenna Garden. Undaunted by the sudden cold snap, the rain, and a misbehaving iphone recorder, we ended up at Ladro on Greville street as they took a very brief break from
