Overview

Sometimes art galleries can be a little stuffy. We get it. The white cube is so last decade. Now we want to touch the art. We want to get all up in its business. Going above and beyond this Friday night, ACCA Art Bar will be hosting a live performance by local act Speed Painters. You might have caught these guys around the club and bar circuit, but they've recently been busy finishing up their debut album — a record that blends what they describe as "slo-mo disco", motor soul and house music.

This weekend also marks the end of two major ACCA exhibitions: In The Cut, a group exhibition on the diverse art of collage, and FILM, Tacita Dean's monumental work that had its Australian debut as part of the Melbourne Festival last month. Both these shows are well worth catching before they get packed up, and what better way to do that than by swanning around listening to slo-mo disco and drinking discount drinks? (Beer and wine are just $5 from 6-7pm. You're welcome.)
