Strange Pillows

November 3rd - 13th

Opening night
thursday 3rd November
6 - 9pm

Photographic works by Wolfie Mayr

Strange pillows (inspired by the lyrics of Joni Mitchell’s
song “Amelia”: “..slept on strange pillows of my
wonderlust”)

is a selection of analogue photography shot on reverse film
material spanning a period from 1974 to 1999. As the title
suggests, travelling experiences were the main source
of inspiration. The photographs span a period of these
travels, from France 1974 – represented in a series of
pictures which put on “mould” over the years – to the PR
of China in 1986, Portugal, the USA in the nineties, and
impressions of Austria which Wolfie called home before
moving to Australia in 2003.

All photographs are available in limited edition of 3 prints.
Printing: PrismImaging, North Melbourne, Kodak Lustre

Northside Heroes
a group show

June 9th - 19th
Opening night
Thursday June 9th
6 - 9pm

What is a hero?
Who is your hero?
How do we define heroism
in contemporary Australian
culture?
Amid the rising tide of
gentrification of Melbourne’s inner
northern suburbs,
Northside Heroes is a celebration of
community and culture;
a celebration of the streets and
faces that helped shape our
collective identity.
Northside Heroes is a multi-disciplinary
exhibition in which a selection of artists
from Melbourne’s northern
suburbs come together to explore
the notion of heroism in a
contemporary urban climate.

Scram by Lloyd Stubber

2011-04-22T20:05:00.001-07:00

‘Scram’ the first solo exhibition and book launch by West Australian born photographer Lloyd Stubber.

‘Scram’ is an insight into my first year in Melbourne. The encounters with old friends,
new surroundings and my last year of being a teenager.

I've been shooting for several years now, focusing on documenting my day to day
life and others close to me. I am prone to getting myself into strange situations,
whether that is due to my good or bad luck is beyond me.

Copies of the 28 page saddle stitched publication ‘Scram’ , will be available
for $10 on the night right through to Sunday. All books also come with 1 of 5
limited edition ‘Scram’ postcards.

you started it

2011-03-29T17:16:00.000-07:00

The Brunswick Show is so so so so excited to be picking up the pace toward the 2011 show!
To kick things off we’ve organised a sweet and dandy little fundraiser show titled YOU STARTED IT…
As you can see from the gorgeous promo (by our new best friend Marcus Pulkas) the exhibition will be held at Tinning Street Gallery, opening on the 14th of April.
A Thursday. From 6-9 pm.

Umm, you’d be pretty insane to miss it.
For a couple of reasons, the main one being that if you’re not there you will not get a fricken amazing artwork for 40 BUCK$$$!

Yep, original art by over 40 insane artists like Sam Leach, Carla Fletcher, No Scribbles, and Lauz.
Not only is the art by them, it is a collaboration with cute little kids!

Could Brunswick get any more SWEET??
Art, kids, maybe beer, probably nice people, probably cool people, and dorky people, and funny people. Blah blah. Sweet sweet. Giving giving. Cute cute. Just be there.
The end.

Acute #4 by Tobi Clark

2010-11-23T15:22:00.000-08:00

Tinning street presents...

It is not accidental that perspective, even though it has been historically considered a realistic device to reproduce reality, produces an ambivalent condition. It is an instrument capable of faithfully fixing the exact dimension and position of objects in space but it is also an instrument capable of producing illusions, in some cases paradoxically reversing its own mechanisms.

Acute # 4 is a collection of objects and images encompassing three separate interventions which consider expectations of perspective to question human processing of the ‘seen’ world. The intention is to bring attention to ‘invisable’ objects and overlooked hand processes.
Suspended between the trajectories of art and design, Tobia Clark considers both conceptual and material measures in the array of garment constructions and her ‘colouring in’.
-The Corner Shirts use anamorphic rules to optically misinterpret three dimensional objects. (Corner shirts)
-The Photograph Blazers employ virtual (photographically replicated) woollen fabric to unnervingly mimic reality.
-The Graphs force viewers to look twice at images that initially seem computer generated but in fact are painstakingly coloured in by hand.
All three attempt to somewhat subvert expectations of perspective and visual assumption.

‘objects are often invisible to us, gathered up as they are within a context of functionality and use”
-Martin Heidegger

Artist Information
Acute#4 is the fourth iteration of an ongoing quest.
Tobia Clark is interested in fashion systems and interventions.
She graduated from RMIT with a Bachelor of Design (Fashion) Honours.
She attempts to step diagonally forward.
She is currently based in Melbourne, teaching herself how to make decent nougat.

Doors open 8pm

electricity from lemons (part 3) sees a woman, simply named D, sharing the moment between an action caused and a reaction received, and all the memories that flood in to that space once its opened. imagine the flicker of recognition that passes across an old lovers face when you run in to them after its all over. What occupied those moments within that flicker. D: 'holding me so tight and close it left a pattern from the dirty s......heets down my free leg. And this was pretty.'
She is that moment of clarity that we all like to enjoy when its all been said and no more can be done.

Electricity from lemons, as a project, was started in march 2010 by writer/performer nick casey and sees three separate character and thematic based monologues presented every three months at brunswick art space tinning st gallery. Each piece has its own individual character and deals with the ideas of space and how we occupy, affect and control what and where we choose to inhabit. The universal worries of being stuck outside your home. The fear of being locked out side of your body. The threat that you are never actually alone.
Leaving three months between shows (and in that three months write,design and produce) gives performances that are full of visual beauty and dialogue that's short sharp and arresting from the outset.

please note there will be no performance mon the 8th nov.
doors close at 8 pm

"Electricity from Lemons" part 2

2010-06-15T23:30:00.001-07:00

"Electricity from Lemons" is a year long performance project by Nick Casey initiated in march 2010. With a band of designers, directors and players the project centers on the theme of space and how we occupy it and also what happens to it when we are not there. Using the medium of performance we aim to take three character and thematic based monologues and combine them into one cohesive performance piece by years end. Taking three months between writing and presenting each character creates short, sharp writing as well as inventive new ways of presenting ideas and effects. The end result will be a rounded fully developed play that has had the opportunity to organiclly form and fall as it's wants and needs arise." peering into the urban void from his 'safety of the bedroom', his is one of voyeur, a commentator. its sexy whats happening out there. that space between strangers is charged, ready to pop."
