Hang Outs... Gold Coast, Australia




SMALL
International Group Show 28 April 26 May 2012
Opening Night: Saturday 28 April 2012 6-8pm at 19 KAREN Contemporary Artspace 

A little piece of Brooklyn, New York, will be coming to the Gold Coast in the form of the SMALL International Group show opening at 19 KAREN Contemporary Artspace on Saturday 28 April 2012.
The SMALL International Group Show sees 33 emerging American artists collectively show what they have to offer the Australian art world. SMALL is curated by established and celebrated artist of the Brooklyn community R Nicholas Kuszyk. The idea came to him after thinking about how emerging artists with limited budgets could display their works internationally without having to pay huge amounts in international shipping fees. The solution was to send small works as a collective.

Other artists that will be featuring in the SMALL exhibition include: SWOON, Blok, D’Metrius Rice, James Callahan, Jessie Rose Vala, Jonathan Mehring, Katherine Chanler, PARS, Patrick Berran, Ryan McLennan and many more

Please join us and Curator R Nicholas Kuszyk for the Opening Night of SMALL International Group Show at 19 KAREN Contemporary Artspace on Saturday 28 April 2012 from 6-8pm. Drinks and nibbles will be provided. 

To RSVP please call (07) 55545 019 or email info@19karen.com.au.

Keepin Up With Roger Gasman

New Movie Release
Wall Writers=20


RDC: Roger Gasman has just emailed us. He wants you to take a look at his new movie out on release soon... Lookin ace Roger!

Please check out the trailer to my new documentary:
WALL WRITERS=20
Graffiti in its Innocence
1967-1972
I hope you enjoy. The film is finished and we are
currently figuring out its release. John Waters even did the narration for
it.

Thanks
Roger

From director Roger Gastman—a producer of the Academy Award-nominated documentary Exit Through the Gift Shop—comes Wall Writers, a documentary on graffiti in its innocence.

Through unprecedented access to TAKI 183, CORNBREAD, and a host of other legendary writers, Wall Writers tells the story of a time when underprivileged city kids refused to keep lurking in the shadows, when the streets were so wild that fame and infamy became indistinct, when art became a democracy and self-promotion became an art.

Product Test




In The Hood


Last month we found this Hood in a University Arts Department, on a lovely design student's head named Imogen. 

This month we find it hanging around with one of the Collective Crew - Tempora, in an urban spray setting. He is famous for his eye murals and they are no doubt checkin out his stylist head attire.

If multi-colours aren't your thing then the Hood is reversible with a matt black interior, for those of you who are into the dark side. If you are into colours there is loads more to choose from on the Neonbeige site.

All you have to remember are the German words 'In den Warenkorb' which means 'In the shopping cart'... Simples!

App a Week

'Fruit Ninja' 
Category: Games

For use on:
⁍ iPhone
⁍  iPad
Video Demonstration

Fruit Ninja:
The idea of this un is to slice and dice the fruit as it appears on screen, using your finger as a knife. If you can hit more than one fruit per swipe, points are added to the total. You can also use numerous knives (doh, fingers!) to up your points and get bonuses. Occasionally bombs can be thrown into the basket, (so to speak), for more mega messiness!

A great way to release pent up stress by puncturing a pomegranate, mangling a melon or rearranging a raspberry. Ether way, it will get your juices flowing- argh no, all over the place!


From the book.

Collaboration: Rad Dad Collective have hooked up with Taschen Publishing to bring you an 'App a Week.' The inspiration came when we received a copy of The App & Mobile Case Study Book from Taschen and we were well impressed!

Hang Outs... New York



Greetings art lovers!

Next up at Bold Hype Gallery is the very talented Beau Stanton's debut solo show in NYC, titled 'Archaic Ornaments'.  The Opening reception is Thursday April 12  6pm - 9pm. The artist will be present. Hope we see you there!

Running from: 12th of April till 5th of May 2012

Unearthing ancient narratives from the detritus of industrial decline, where Sirens grapple with sinking ships and Sibyls predict cataclysmic events, Beau Stanton gilds his apocryphal myth with the graphical elements of creation, destruction and rebirth, inviting the viewer inside our collective unconscious ornamented by layers of chipped artifice and the rusted machinations of time.
