READ MORESee, we thought we already had this show up – but then realised that we had only put up the submissions event for it, damnit! As scifi is one of our favourite things here, and as Artboy is one of our favourite galleries, there’s no excuse – but, rest assured, you have plenty of time
READ MOREWe first saw some of Lisa Kings work back in July when we saw news of her show at Paperhorse Studios, and we vowed to keep an eye on what she’s been up to. The other day she sent us this flyer for her next show – our diligent eyes almost missed it, how’s that
READ MOREGreat things happening all across Australia this month – shows in Perth, Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, from street art to launch parties, and, of course, a whole heap of painting and sculpting – and that’s what Nine Lives will be bringing to the party this week, and with the pair of artists they have lined
