KINGS Artist-Run: October Exhibitions

  • Free
  • Art

See the new exhibitions for October at KINGS Artist-Run.

Gallery One
Bird in Space by Parker Lev Dupain
With its title borrowed from Constantin Brâncuși’s 1932–40 polished bronze sculptures, Bird in Space explores affect as something constituted through form rather than simply being represented by it.

Gallery Two
A play and a mistake by Anna McDermott.
A play and a mistake stages a scene to cause another.
The scene is this: an encore of misrecognitions.

Gallery Three
Fresh Blood Washings by Elijah Cristiano
Fresh Blood Washings uses moving image, photography, field recording and the practice of writing to reveal the violence inflicted upon the Maribyrnong River by settler-colonial expansion and industrialisation. After the Yarra River Pollution Act was passed in 1855 to clean up Melbourne's inner eastern waterways, tanneries, abattoirs, and other noxious trades were relocated to the banks of the Maribyrnong River.
