Do not read this review of Urban Art 10A at Brunswick Street Gallery (BSG) as it is biased. I work with the curator, Tessa Yea in the Melbourne Stencil Festival. I own a work by Boo, so I have an interest in promoting her work. You have been warned. Urban Art 10A is a group exhibition, a sampling of street influenced art. In this case street-influence includes aerosol stencils, cartoon influence illustration and custom toys. There is no free hand aerosol art, no vinyl toys, no street sculpture, no guerrilla gardens, etc. but you can’t have everything on a single floor ...

Last thursday night HYPEMUCH attended the opening of Michael Steele’s solo show “Accumulating”, which is being held at the always awesome exhibition space, Gorker Gallery. - Michael Steele’s latest “cluster” series is like an acid-induced-brain-explosion, where all your child hood memories flood back to your frontal lobe in an instant.

The Exhibition runs until Sunday 21 February… Gorker Gallery Opening Hours: 3PM – 7PM Wednesay – Friday 11AM – 7PM Saturday & Sunday http://www.gorkergallery.com - Taken from ...
My husband and I are both artists (graphic designer/illustrator) and are seeking a secure creative space that would suit living as well as working from as we’re trying to keep overheads low. We’re neat, mature and friendly, and hoping to find a place to move into in December that would accommodate us as freelance artists. Parking is ideal, but we’re happy to have street parking if available. Prefer space that includes internet connection. Please contact us if you have anything available.

Local and international artists are sponsored to live in Wardlow’s Fitzroy warehouse and utilise their own studio and gallery. WARDLOW hosts 4 shows a year in which the gallery is open to the ...
Situated on the corner of Gore and Kerr Streets Fitzroy awakes the sleeping giant that is Gorker Gallery. An unassuming yellow brick warehouse complete with rollerdoor from the outside and a lofty contemporary exhibition space with wet polished concrete floors, white walls, track lighting and exposed industrial features on the inside. It’s a little touch of New York in the heart of Melbourne’s art district. Opened in June 2008 by gallery directors Luke Mathews, Timba Smits (Wooden Toy Quarterly), Nathan Holmes Trapnell (The Southpaw) and Lauren Biedrzycki, Gorker Gallery aims to support both local and international emerging (and established) contemporary artists ...

Luckily, it reminded me to let you in on their awesome little store, a real life pop-up book of cute, kitsch and Japanese style cool.This is just the place if your Blythe doll has spilt paddle pop on her frock - they stock teeny tiny Kenner-doll-friendly dresses... as well as lovely contemporary Blythe dolls. It's also a great place to pick up Shinzi Katoh goodness or very necessary deco-tape - the kind with sweet pictures of little houses and mushrooms and happy frogs and things.Searching for inspiration? You'll find it ...
