Additional newsletter photos by Lachlan Fysh @lachlanfysh link

A blog for people who are into making, displaying, discovering, finding, buying, collecting & considering photographs. 

EDITORIAL

We are a week early as I will be I will be away next week.  

 

Why do we make photographs? Is there more than instagram? We buy cameras capable of making A2 prints yet we look at them on phones... Why? In part this newsletter was created to show that making photographs can be so much more interesting if printed and pondered. Thus we list the gallery exhibitions we can find and opportunities that come about. We have all the talent and infrastructure in Victoria to be a world centre, are we interested in being that?

 

Please go to exhibitions and talks they are mainly free and give you an opportunity to see others photographers work and encourage the galleries to continue to present work for you consideration and a place for you to show.

 

Congratulations to Jesse Pretorius, who was chosen as on of a hundred finalists in The Tree of Life: a Love Letter to Nature PhotoVogue Festival in Milan. Ali Choudhry is who are finalists in the Percivals Photographic Portrait Prize. If you have made it into one of the majors we have listed let us know so we can give you a call out.

 

Our goal is to reach as many people as we can and bring the photo community in Victoria together to know and experience all that we have. Each month our long term content moves to reframe-refocus.xyz for look, buy/fix, hire, labs and previous newsletters so that you can view a full list of what is here.

Eureka Centre - Ballarat

 

Historical Photography and the 19thC Gold Rushes

5.30pm Thursday August 01, 2024

Anne Maxwell

Eureka Centre Auditorium

FREE. No bookings required.

 

Photography was still a novelty and topic of immense public interest during the 1850s goldrush. Richard Daintree and Antoine Fauchery both tried to make their fortunes in the gold fields near Ballarat before joining forces to open one of Australia’s most successful early photography studios. Photographs produced in the very early twentieth century reveal a sense of the social and environmental costs of an event that brought wealth and fortune to many, but misery to many others. Anne will explore goldrush photography of Australia, before comparing it to gold mining photography from California and New Zealand photographers.

 

Anne Maxwell is an Associate Professor in the English Program in the School of Culture and Communication at the University of Melbourne.

Melbourne Out Loud:
Life through the lens of Rennie Ellis

Rennie Ellis

to 28 January 2025

 

If there was ever a photographer to take Melbourne’s portrait, it was Rennie Ellis.

Rennie had an uncanny ability to slip into all kinds of social circles and his photographs are the ultimate story of life on the town.

He roamed our places: St Kilda Beach, the MCG, Swanston Street, Sidney Myer Music Bowl. He met superstars: Tina Turner, Mick Jagger, Grace Jones. He stood with crowds on the biggest days of the year: Melbourne Cup, the AFL Grand Final, the Boxing Day Test. He befriended people from all walks of life: athletes and celebrities, punks and protesters, beach goers and party lovers. And he captured it all on camera.

Recovering the Past

Ian Alderman

to 29 September 2024

 

This unique photographic exhibition unites two distinct groups of men separated by a century, connected by conflict and the art of photo montage. The first group comprises the men of the Australian Imperial Force (AIF) who battled in Flanders during the Great War's most harrowing encounters. The second group consists of Belgian men engaged in ongoing bomb disposal efforts on those same former battlefields today.

 

Drawing inspiration from Australian cultural and artistic figures like photographer Frank Hurley and artist Will Longstaff, artist Ian Alderman embarks on a philosophical journey exploring the enduring repercussions of human conflict—legacies that persist long after the cessation of gunfire.

Built photography

Trent Crawford, Jessica Curry, Lucas Davidson, Damian Dillon, Jacqueline Felstead, Janina Green, Luke Parker, Kiah Pullens, Jacky Redgate, Talia Smith, Katrina Stamatopoulos, Andrew Tetzlaff, Marian Tubbs, Skye Wagner & Grace Wood

8 June – 25 August 2024

 

Built photography proposes a conversation between photography’s material, its surface and form and especially its objectness, against which the flatness of the photographic plane is interrogated. Through processes of ‘inflation’, photographs disrupt the two-dimensional surface to complicate the spatial relationship between the content of an image and its physical form.

 

Hollow

Izabela Pluta and Kiron Robinson

8 June – 21 July 2024

 

In this exhibition both Pluta and Robinson explore their own and public archives which are then decontextualised and recontextualised to bring past ideas into a contemporary context. For the curators of Built photography, Hollow playfully capsizes the idea of being built and examines the emptiness that can lie underneath the surface of a photograph.

In a restless world like this is

22 June to 07 September 2024

 

How many worlds are within, or nested amongst, this one? Is it possible to traverse them, and what might act as the tethers or links between them?

In a restless world like this is emerges in response to two works held in the City of Darebin collection; Siri Hayes’ large-scale photographs, Lyric Theatre at Merri Creek and Crossing the Merri (both 2003). Inviting responses from Anni Hagberg, Katie Paine, Katrin Koenning and Leonie Brialey, this exhibition reverberates outwards from its sources—the Merri Creek as a physical space, but also the Merri Creek as presented within Hayes’ works—to consider what might reside in the generative spaces within and between worlds.

Kate Ballis, Tom Blachford, Anna Carey, Sam Cranstoun, Paul Davies, Rosi Griffin, Vicki Stravrou, Robyn Sweaney and Gosia Wlodarczak. American artists in the exhibition are Darren Bradley, Jim Isermann, Troy Kudlac, Lance O’Donnell and Kim Stringfellow.

4 May to 1 September 2024

 

This interdisciplinary exhibition brings together 14 creative minds – including internationally recognised artists, photographers and thinkers from America and Australia – who respond to, capture, or reimagine the magical qualities of the landscape and the celebrated mid-century modern architecture found in the desert city.

 

Connections between Palm Springs and Australia are remarkably strong, particularly when viewed through the lens of the current renaissance of interest in modernist architecture. Place and home, desert atmospheres, landscapes (real and imagined), and Bauhaus sensibilities inform the works.
