Don’t Look So Offended

Overview

Everyone has an art crush, and anyone who denies it is either lying or blind. Whether it’s Andy Warhol, Shepard Fairey, Mr Scribble or the barista that spent three years completing a creative industries degree to become the best damn milk frother this side of the river, an art crush is nothing to joke about.

There’s only one way then to cure/celebrate an art crush, and that’s to draw pictures of them chronically, in your underwear while listening to So Fresh Autumn 2011 – a great year. We can only assume that’s how the art showcase Don’t Look So Offended – an exhibit of some of Brisbane’s leading artists working the styling's of their muses – came about. Hosted by Witchmeat, with names like Alrey Batol, Yannick Blattner, Amy Commins, Callum Galletly and more artistically baring all, this house party, art showcase fusion promises a creepy amount of talent.

Pop on the 199, 196 or grab the closest bike, and make your way to 80 Hampstead Road, West End, to witness artists channelling their idols in a stranger’s house you’ve never been to before – sounds safe and fun!
