A show that could in many ways be described as being the curatorial equivalent of an eight year old with a can of spray deodorant, wall-to-floor wardrobe mirrors and a Tiffany CAS single. ALL THE CRITICS LOVE YOU! is a warm, endearing and charming expression of well loved icons and the artists' personal recreations of them.
d/Lux Media Arts in association with Loose projects present this single channel video exhibition in which artists Tom McMullan and Tillie Baker, Emma Ramsay and Anna John, Matthew Hopkins and Jonathan Bailey, Elizabeth Reidy and Vicki Papageorgopoulos and Daniel Green honour the notion that
“imitation is the highest form of flattery”.
Exploring popular cultural moments in film, theatre, gaming, dance and music. Each respective work cheekily embraces a moment embedded in the world of iconic popular culture to re-establish it within a dialogue of celebrated mediocrity and desire.
opening wednesday 4th october 6-8pm continues to saturday 14th october

Firstdraft is pleased to present the twentylove forum series, a free series of discussions open to all on Saturday afternoons throughout October. Debate issues and ideas with key identities from the Sydney arts community and beyond:
On approach – Introducing firstdraft in the wider ARI community Saturday 2-4pm October 7
Firstdraft directors past and present will launch the anniversary forum program with the ARI matchmaker publication and new website. Dr Kit Messham-Muir (Arts NSW) will open the anniversary program, and introducing our broader arts community will be ARI representatives from Sydney, interstate and New Zealand.
On show – Curators, artists and the Invisible Inc speak Saturday 2-4pm October 14

Departure – Different ways of doing things Saturday 2-4pm October 21
ARIS and arts projects do not have to be tied down to the traditional model of exhibitions within a gallery space, as representatives from these innovative and fluid initiatives testify. Featuring Rachel Scott (The Invisible Inc.), Sarah Rawlings and Clare Lewis (Terminus Projects), Dougal Phillips and Oiver Watts, (½ Doz), Alex Garownski (Loose Projects) and Jeff Kahn (Next Wave Festival)
Onwards – Avenues within the contemporary arts
2-4pm October 28
Emerging artists, curators and arts workers face a wealth of possibility for making their path in the contemporary art community. Featuring Sophie O’Brien (Venice Biennale 07, Australia Council for the Arts), Reuben Keenan (Artspace), Anthony Whelen (Sherman Galleries Art Box), Soda_Jerk (collaborative artist/curator/critical team) and The Art Life (lauded Sydney art blog).
Join us in marking firstdraft’s 20 years of supporting contemporary artists, curators and discourse - come down to the gallery on your Saturday afternoons and chat with these eminent art identities about what is going on in our cultural community.
Take part in the commentary on firstdraft’s longevity, and discuss possibilities and priorities, aspirations and challenges for artists and ARIs in Sydney and further afield.
