Overview
Good news! Firstdraft Gallery – that tireless incubator of emerging art – will survive the notice of compulsory renovations recently served to them (reeking of impending doom). Sound the Hurrah!
Their recent fundraising auction was a roaring success and as a result the gallery will close on October 18 until early next year - all exhibitions postponed till then. Except the one opening Wednesday September 30.
And what a trio of shows to go out on for the year!
Sarah Contos, in her first Sydney exhibition, will transform the gallery into ‘a sort of abstracted house’. Great Expectations is an installation inspired by a fusing of Charles Dickens’ literature and Australian urban legends.
Danielle Clej, Ruth McConchie and Sarah Byrne in collaboration promise obsessive collection, collision and fragile spatial order.
Rachel Scott, fresh from a Firstdraft studio residency, is showing her most recent project Knife Edge. If you haven’t encountered Scott's work yet, then I suggest you get along to this.
