ABSTRACTI♀︎N, Curated by Missy Ueda and Emma Langridge, Five Walls, Footscray. 1 - 18 February.

Five Walls presents the work of fifty Australian abstract artists in an expansive exhibition across four gallery spaces. This endeavour attempts in some way to redress the gender imbalance in the art world, but moreover, it signals the continuing presence and ongoing practice of women artists in Australia and around the world.

In 1968, the National Gallery of Victoria opened its doors on its inaugural exhibition, The Field. This was a landmark event: a comprehensive survey of abstraction in Australia. 

The work of forty artists was presented, including hard-edge, geometric, colour and flat abstraction. The intention was to underscore a vastly underappreciated genre which favoured form, line and colour, whilst eschewing representation and figuration.

In 2018, The Field was recreated. All attempts were made to replicate the original exhibition, down to the silver walls of the gallery space.

However, by recontextualising the exhibition in the 21st century, the curators also reiterated the gender imbalance, underscoring it, emphasising it. Of the forty artists, thirty-seven were men - and three were women. Normana Wight, Janet Dawson, and Wendy Paramor were the only females whose work was included.

This was less than five years ago.

We live in a time where we collectively look to the past and turn over rocks, attempting to rediscover what was there all along, We reinterpret, rewrite and rediscover what was lost, redressing past inequalities in order to provide a fairer assessment of what really happened, and to move forward with the intent to be fairer. We are aware that so much has been omitted from the history books.

In the year 2023, an exhibition highlighting the work of women abstract artists in Australia should not be needed. These artists work daily at their practice, which is also to say that it is an everyday activity.

So, though it should not be needed, for now it is absolutely necessary.

We need to keep saying it, with the ultimate goal of not needing to say it.

Exhibiting artists:

Susan Andrews, Billie Baker, Pamela Bain,Irene Barberis, Rhonda Baum, Karen Benton,Louise Blyton, Elisabeth Bodey, Anna Caione, Michelle Caithness, Veronica Caven Aldous, Magda Cebokli, Jenny Zhe Chang,Caroline Collom, Donna Comfort, Nancy Constandelia, Rox De Luca, Kerrilee Dixon,Tina Douglas, Nanou Dupuis, Jodie Flugge,Leila Gerges, Graziela Guardino, Kate Hendry, Suzie Idiens, Shelley Jardine, Linda Judge, Wendy Kelly, Emma Langridge, Natalie Lavelle, Kerri McConchie, Rebecca Monaghan, Claire Mooney, Ro Murray,Simone Nelson, Yuria Okamura, Lisa Pang,Sarah Ritchie, Sarah Robson, Fiona Schoer,Anne Scott Wilson, Anna Steele, Eva Stimson Clark, Maki (Maja) Suljevic, Wilma Tabacco, Leah Teschendorff, Patricia Todarello, Elke Varga, Karen Wells, Susan Wirth.

On now! Freakflag 3CR fundraiser. Please support this! Nat’s awesome radio show.

My piece was made using recordings while working in a construction site for 5 months. It’s called ‘The electrical energy of 100,510,000,000J’ because apparently that’s how much energy the average construction site uses.

Sound Walk Berlin: approx. 23 August to 30. September 2021

What is the relationship between music and place? At this year's Month of Contemporary Music, we would like to deepen the debate surrounding the social and political significance of music in urban space and its representation, while also observing the sound of the city itself. With the Sound> Walk> Berlin, the contemporary music scene is reclaiming its urban space and turning the streets of Berlin into a stage!

For the Month of Contemporary Music in September, we invite artists, ensembles and venues of the contemporary music scene to expand or redefine various places in Berlin in terms of sound. Contributions of sound and music can interact with the existing urban sounds of a place (such as traffic, voices, playgrounds, subway and construction sites), comment on its architecture, history and surroundings, or enable alternative interpretations by reinterpreting the sound of the place.

With Sound> Walk> Berlin, residents and visitors can experience the city from the perspective of the artists. These personal listening experiences sensitise the listener to the unique sounds of our living spaces, and to the connection between sound and city, and thus stimulate diverse discussions about the relationship between sounds of the city and spaces for music. On the walks, both the city and the contemporary music scene can be (re)discovered.

The map on the app:

Berlin artists assign music and sounds to various places in Berlin on a virtual city map of Berlin. This city map can be called up using the QR codes, that are dispersed across the city, or via our website. For the Soundwalk, we have booked around 100 locations in Berlin, which can be the starting point for a sound experience. The city map can be accessed via this QR codes or via https://www.field-notes.berlin/soundwalk/.

An app is not required, the music is streamed via SoundCloud. Good headphones enhance the sound experience.

See: first draft Webstruktur

The map consists of:

• a sound spots (assigning music to places)

• a sound mark (a place you feel is unique or exciting or interesting enough to not need additional sound or music to be enjoyed and appreciated)

• a route (sound or audio walks) and

• Performances (that take place in public spaces in September).

FIVE WALLS

Exhibiton Details:
Closing event - Friday, Dec 21st, 6-9pm
Exhibition runs Dec 19th - 22nd 2018

Five Walls warmly welcomes you to join us on Friday, December 21st for SUPPORT 18, a group exhibition across all the Gallery spaces.

SUPPORT 18 is equally an exhibition and a fundraiser, with the commission raised supporting the practices of artist and also used to fund the Five Walls 2019 program - therefore proceeds will be evenly divided: 50% to the artist and 50% to the Gallery.  

SUPPORT 18 will fund Five Walls' new Curator Program. The 2019 Curator Program will feature three exhibitions curated by Billy Gruner, David Thomas and Craig Easton in collaboration with the Director and Committee. The program will introduce new artists and audiences to the Gallery from across Australia and internationally.

Five Walls is expanding in 2019 with a large new gallery space showing a variety of exhibitions, including the Curator Program.

As SUPPORT 18 is our final show for 2018, the evening will also be a celebration for artists and friends. We are grateful for your continuing support!

Horse Bazaar 397 Little Lonsdale Street, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia 3000

Special Guests: Beliegha (Curse Ov Dialect), Xenosine, Tina Douglas, Exogene + Puscha
THIS SHOW IS STRICTLY 18+

The second iteration of the Diffusion series celebrates audio-visual performance utilising the panoramic projection capabilities of Horse Bazaar. Fresh from the release of their debut album, Puscha sends us on an ambient cinematic journey using footage captured while at sea in the Southern Ocean witnessing the frozen continent at the bottom of our world. DIY audio-visual artist Tina Douglas utilises IR and conductive sensor devices to synthesise 3D position data and project sound reactive real-time video in improvised performance. Applying the visual work of David Short, dark-ambient duo Exogene combine atmospheric synthetic sounds with sonic elements made from preparations of a renaissance precursor to the double bass. Xenosine provides a multi-sensory live experience driven by heavy rhythmic progression by means of modular synthesiser & theremin controller. Finally finishing the night Beliegha, visionary of Curse Ov Dialect, presents eclectic tunes harvested from the unknown world of sound recording history.
