STROBED
A place to see a few photos and a few words about Sydney art exhibitions when you can't get there yourself. Or when you want to see photos of yourself on the internet.
Andrew Ensor + Beth Josey @ Hardware
As the sun dropped during the first week post daylight savings time we entered Hardware Gallery to check out the latest by Beth Josey Andrew Ensor.
Josey’s series of works was dominated by linoleum prints examining the many poisons that are hidden in beautiful organisms. Ensor’s delicate and beautiful architectural-based ink drawings studied the power and crumbling beauty of historic castles as they slowly become obsolescent.

Sin - Tim Schultz, 1994
Walking into MOP to explore Tim Schultz’ s newest exhibition was a fairly frightening experience. Schultztown is a retrospective of Shultz’s work, put on display as a fire sale to make some room in his studio.

It hasn’t been long since our last visit to LO-FI but if there is one thing we can’t resist it’s a show about death. Oh so many skulls! Delicious. “Morte” was a group show curated by incredible Sydney tattoo artist Josh Roelink. He asked 25 of his favorite tattoo and visual artists to create works that explored their concept of mortality.

Project 5 is a fund-raising initiative by the Information and Cultural Exchange (ICE). The shots we’re showing are from Project 5 round two. The first event in May raised over $10,000 for the guys at ICE, so they were keen to make it happen again.

FBi is a radio station that seems to always be in desperate need of cash and and as a result these guys have some very creative fundraising ideas. 2009 saw them have a shot at asking Richard Branson for $1 million and the birth of Still Life. Still Life is an auction of donated artworks from local and international artists with proceeds going to ensure the station’s survival.

There is a very very sexy new exhibition space in Sydney – the name is LO-FI Collective. We recommend you get along and acquaint yourselves.
