fortyfivedownstairs presents Unrepresented, an exhibition of five outstanding independent visual artists including emerging artists Ted McKinlay, Chloe Vallance, Nicholas Jones & Ben V Walsh alongside established independent artist Christopher Koller August 3-14th. In addition, a forum titled The Artists Survival Kit will be held on the 14th of August comprising an afternoon of relevant and pragmatic discussion about the contemporary arts scene, artists’ survival and expectations. Coinciding deliberately with the Melbourne Art Fair, which is an exhibition of leading contemporary art chosen and presented by over 80 national and international galleries, Unrepresented responds to the vagaries and minefields of the art world that contemporary artists encounter. While most artists see representation by a gallery as the best possible situation, others deliberately remain outside the accepted system. Unrepresented is curated by Walk to Art director Bernadette Alibrando, who has delved beneath the surface of Melbourne’s commercial gallery scene, and has selected five diverse artists who are excellent at their craft, have refined concepts, conceptual and emotional content in their work, underlying drive and have chosen to remain independent. “Being represented and going it alone both have positives and negatives. I have enjoyed the freedom to exhibit more frequently and in artist- run spaces for smaller bodies of work and for group shows, and have been able to deal directly with people who collect my work” - Christopher Koller Christopher Koller has travelled the world for the past 13 years with a $7.00 plastic toy (Diana) camera and will present a series of large photographs of Portuguese gardens which have a hazy, dreamlike quality to them, with shapes rendered indistinct, organic and inviting to the imagination. Ben Walsh's presented series of artworks are digital prints of rendered models using techniques that reference the computer gaming world and are an exploration of nature’s intrusion into the human sense of order. Chloe Valance's series of colour pencil drawings on plywood tiled “All roads lead to where we stand” were developed in response to the experience of travel in relation to the nature of being; the work considers the nature of the individual in society. Nicholas Jones presents a selection of altered books which have been folded, cut, torn and sewn into unique sculptural pieces, drawing inspiration from mid 20th century design. Ted McKinlay presents a series of drawings utilising the inspiration of found media and personal circumstance. Running an arts practice is time consuming, and the art world can be very difficult to navigate. In conjunction with Unrepresented, fortyfivedownstairs will present a forum “The Artists’ Survival Kit” focusing on the absolute necessity for artists to be businesslike as well as creative. There will be words of wit and wisdom from Marcus Westbury, (writer, broadcaster, and festival director), Tom Lowenstein, Australia’s leading arts accountant, Christopher Koller, photographic artist and former academic and Bernadette Alibrando. The forum will be adjudicated by fortyfivedownstairs Artistic Director Mary Lou Jelbart and is presented with support from the Portland House Foundation. Since 2002 fortyfivedownstairs has offered an evocative urban space and a friendly, hands-on, personalised service to an eclectic mix of artists for theatre, visual arts, forum, music and dance events. Described by The Age as “a cultural powerhouse”, this not-for-profit organisation prides itself on showcasing the emerging, the independent, the experimental and the thought-provoking and Unrepresented is no exception.

In addition, a forum titled The Artists Survival Kit will be held on the 14th of August comprising an afternoon of relevant and pragmatic discussion about the contemporary arts scene, artists’ survival and expectations. Coinciding deliberately with the Melbourne Art Fair, which is an exhibition of leading contemporary art chosen and presented by over 80 national and international galleries, Unrepresented responds to the vagaries and minefields of the art world that contemporary artists encounter. While most artists see representation by a gallery as the best possible situation, others deliberately remain outside the accepted system. Unrepresented is curated by Walk to Art director Bernadette Alibrando, who has delved beneath the surface of Melbourne’s commercial gallery scene, and has selected five diverse artists who are excellent at their craft, have refined concepts, conceptual and emotional content in their work, underlying drive and have chosen to remain independent. “Being represented and going it alone both have positives and negatives. I have enjoyed the freedom to exhibit more frequently and in artist- run spaces for smaller bodies of work and for group shows, and have been able to deal directly with people who collect my work” - Christopher Koller Christopher Koller has travelled the world for the past 13 years with a $7.00 plastic toy (Diana) camera and will present a series of large photographs of Portuguese gardens which have a hazy, dreamlike quality to them, with shapes rendered indistinct, organic and inviting to the imagination. Ben Walsh's presented series of artworks are digital prints of rendered models using techniques that reference the computer gaming world and are an exploration of nature’s intrusion into the human sense of order. Chloe Valance's series of colour pencil drawings on plywood tiled “All roads lead to where we stand” were developed in response to the experience of travel in relation to the nature of being; the work considers the nature of the individual in society. Nicholas Jones presents a selection of altered books which have been folded, cut, torn and sewn into unique sculptural pieces, drawing inspiration from mid 20th century design. Ted McKinlay presents a series of drawings utilising the inspiration of found media and personal circumstance. Running an arts practice is time consuming, and the art world can be very difficult to navigate. In conjunction with Unrepresented, fortyfivedownstairs will present a forum “The Artists’ Survival Kit” focusing on the absolute necessity for artists to be businesslike as well as creative. There will be words of wit and wisdom from Marcus Westbury, (writer, broadcaster, and festival director), Tom Lowenstein, Australia’s leading arts accountant, Christopher Koller, photographic artist and former academic and Bernadette Alibrando. The forum will be adjudicated by fortyfivedownstairs Artistic Director Mary Lou Jelbart and is presented with support from the Portland House Foundation. Since 2002 fortyfivedownstairs has offered an evocative urban space and a friendly, hands-on, personalised service to an eclectic mix of artists for theatre, visual arts, forum, music and dance events.

Are you fed up with stage-managed electoral politics? Want to know what happened at this convention that brought together people wanting a system that cherishes life, knowledge, solidarity, shared abundance and the natural world — and who are determined to work collectively to achieve this?
Last month, members and guests of the Freedom Socialist Party convened at Evergreen College in Olympia, Washington to reflect on international struggles and assess the effectiveness to today’s movements in resisting the intense suffering caused by the latest crisis of capitalism. This meeting will feature multi-media reports from Australian delegates, Alison Thorne, Debbie Brennan and Peter Murray. They’ll discuss the socialist feminist alternative to capitalism, the new queer radicalism, inspirational multi-generational and multi-racial organising and explore how public sector and immigrant workers are firing up the U.S. union movement.The meeting will also feature a lively discussion that came out of an eye witness panel’s examination of Cuba’s imperilled revolution. There will be plenty of opportunity for questions and discussion about the dynamic ideas of the FSP. Tuesday 17 August, 7 pm Dinner will be served at 6:30 pm for an $8 donation.
Solidarity Salon, 580 Sydney Road, Brunswick. Take the Upfield train to Anstey Station or the North Coburg tram to Stewart Street. Plenty of free parking is available at the rear — enter from Staley Street.

A few weeks ago Melbourne Anti-Intervention Collective held a forum asking the question: “Who will stop the NT Intervention?”
At the event we invited representatives from various political groups and the unions to offer their analysis of how to get rid of these racist policies.
Following the close of polls on Saturday, we will see either a Labor Government committed to the NT Intervention, or a Liberal Government committed to th...e NT Intervention. It is clear that we can not leave it to parliament to overturn these barbaric laws.
During this special post-election meeting, Melbourne Anti-Intervention Collective will be presenting an overview of the NT Intervention and a rundown of what the new political situation means for the campaign. Importantly, we will be discussing the sort of action we can take to fight this latest attack on Aboriginal rights.
All welcome for a night of discussion and action!

For the first time, UGC will hold TWO screenings on the same weekend, Saturday night and a matinee screening on Sunday, so guests can choose the session that best suits them.
This screening is for all the film lovers out there, as we head back to an unforgettable era with a nod towards film noir. Guests are invited to dress in line with the period theme and channel Europe at the end of WW2, with a touch of old Hollywood glamour.
You will be required to bring your forged papers to ensure you make it past the Russian checkpoint, and enter UGC Military HQ.

Whilst the burlesque entertainment will be difficult to resist, whatever you do, don’t get caught visiting the Underground Berlin Bar… we have a lot to do, and precious little time to do it in. We have to be quick; the troops are coming.

A new exhibition focusing on places of worship within the streetscape of central Melbourne opens at the City Gallery on Thursday 2 September. Through the compelling images of photographer Zoe Ali and text from Christos Tsiolkas, A New Jerusalem: Faith and the City will take visitors on a journey through the streets and laneways of Melbourne, exploring expressions of worship and cultural diversity. A New Jerusalem: Faith and the City will present text relating to city life from the Bible, the Koran and the Torah combined with Christos Tsiolkas’ own observations about life and faith in 21st century Melbourne. These wildly divergent yet compatible texts are presented alongside 159 black and white photographs of places of worship in Melbourne by Zoe Ali. Zoe Ali’s photographs depict all 61 of the places of worship within the city of Melbourne, plus selected favourites from neighbouring areas. Each photograph captures the perspective of a passer-by; peering at doorways, gazing high to the distinctive rooflines or taking a moment to appreciate ornate detail. The City Gallery is an initiative of the City of Melbourne and hosts exhibitions which draw upon its vast Art and Heritage Collection.

Deborah Cheetham’s lecture is called ‘Pecan Summer a 21st century Australian Opera’
Opera is story telling. Story telling is an ancient and traditional practice for Indigenous people. Opera is therefore a valid form of expression for Indigenous story telling.
For more than 20 years I have pursued a successful career as a freelance classical soprano and in all that time I have been the only classically trained Indigenous Soprano in Australia making a living from this profession. It has long been my belief that there are great Indigenous voices out there that go unheard due to the lack of opportunity and a clearly defined pathway.
What if Australian Indigenous voices became the new sound in opera around the world? What if there was a way to encourage young Indigenous singers and musicians to tell their stories through the medium of opera?
