Tonight at Lo-Fi Collective. Scott Owen, Craig Atkins, Slug, Sprinkles, Houl, Birdhat & Amanda Rondonuwu.
Freedom of religion has given way for a departure from traditional religions to more personal forms of worship. Infamous icons such as the cross or Mother Mary replaced by tools to create such as the skateboard or aerosol can. New god like creatures and fictitious fantasies are created to replace traditional stories of religion followed for generations.
Worship Nothing explores the iconography within contemporary subcultures.

At all exhibitions and other events, the artist will be available for interviews, and on hand to sign his book Calligraffiti with personalized dedications.
The Upside Down Tour kicks off in Sydney, where Likeminded Studio is hosting an exhibition from 25 to 30 January at the artist run kind of — gallery on Oxford Street. In addition, the legendary Kinokuniya Bookstore will host an exhibition in their Wedge Gallery from 25 January until February 7, 2012.

It will be a sad day tomorrow in Brisbane when Nine Lives Gallery closes its doors in their current space. The team is taking a break from the full time gallery world and focusing on project based exhibitions. So stay tuned…
From the Nine Lives family:
“Want to take this opportunity to thank you all for the ongoing support over the last few years. We’re very happy that we’ve been able to contribute to ol’ Brisbane towns cultural landscape in some way or shape. For a long time this city’s been seen as the little sibling to its southern counterparts but we really do think that is changing. Brisbane has plenty going on and there’s a bunch of young creatives making that happen.
Come along Thursday, have a beer. We’d love to see you.”
Below is the flyer for their last show by none other than FRENCH from the UK. Get down…

Melbourne based Drewfunk recently opened his new exhibition of paintings at Paradise Hills Gallery in Richmond. This collection of work was a big step forward for Drew. Compared to his last exhibition, which was predominantly neat line-work illustration, this new work stands out with a warm palette and boasts the fact that Drewfunk is a true master painter. Focusing again on animals, the subjects are rendered perfectly and have all been framed in a typical Drewfunk background/foreground. Fat caps and precise movements. Check out some photos below.

Mark Drew is one of Sydney’s finest (although he now lives in Japan). He’s got it right. He’s the co-founder of China Heights, graphic artist, and all round nice guy.
This Friday he is teaming up with New Era to release a limited number of snapback hats called “NO MONEY, NO WIFE”.
Get down to the Heights this Friday from 6-10pm for your chance to snap up a hat, and also see a selection of recent photographic work by Drew.
