Venue: Perth Institute of Contemporary Art, Perth Cultural Centre, 51 James
St, Northbridge.

Description: In the distance a pool of light was not what it seemed is an
exhibition of new work created for PICA's West End Gallery. Extending her
drawing practice into three-dimensional forms, Sydney-based West Australian
artist Consuelo Cavaniglia takes her latest works to a new scale, creating a
landscape of pavilions for visitors to move through and around.

airbrushed edges to create illusions of depth. Cavaniglia combines drawings,
mirrors and structures to construct disorienting interiors with cinematic
undertones, offering up new perceptual situations within space, time and
architecture.

Venue: Perth Institute of Contemporary Art, Perth Cultural Centre, 51 James
St, Northbridge.

Description: Featuring work by Australian and international artists, Dead
Ringer seeks to draw forth the doppelgangers, ghosts and bad copies that
haunt us. The exhibition unites an original group of artists whose works
negotiate the extremes of portraiture through film, painting, photography,
installation, 3D printing, hypnosis and transcendental meditation to
identify the apparitions, simulations and doubles that have surfaced in
recent dialogues about contemporary culture.

This group show connects artists across artforms, cultures and time zones.
Drawing on theories of quantum entanglement, parallel worlds, stolen
identities and exact duplicates, Dead Ringer is about identity crisis in the
post-internet age.

Dates: 14 November 2015 to 27 December 2015.
Opening Times: Tuesday-Sunday, 10am-5pm.

Ahilan Ratnamohan @ Perth Institute of Contemporary Art

Event Title: SDS1.
Participating Artists: Ahilan Ratnamohan.

Venue: Perth Institute of Contemporary Art, Perth Cultural Centre, 51 James
St, Northbridge.

Description: Returning to PICA as part of a national Mobile States tour,
former footballer Ahilan Ratnamohan performs SDS1, a thrilling
dance-inspired work derived entirely from the physicality of 'the beautiful
game'.

Exploring football (or soccer) as an art form, this physically charged
performance has the audience living the surreal, visceral yet poetic
experience of a football match. SDS1 ponders the psyche of the vulnerable
warriors on the pitch striving to be loved and hated, worshipped and
scorned, and through sheer athletic prowess, creates layers of movement that
see the player 'caught' in the performance, rather than in control of it.

Dates: 23 September 2015 to 26 September 2015.
Opening Times: 7:30pm.

and sinister ways.

and in a private manner. In these new works Rogers is actively moving the
human figure in space. By using compositional tension Rogers is encouraging

models - their qualities, manners and energy, and then transforms and
recasts them into the visual language of her own thoughts, dreams and
desires. All works are mixed media on board.

axe the tax, fix the budget and reduce red tape. Meanwhile, a restless
Australian Labor Party waits for its Leader to ditch the past, move forward
and say something. Behind the Lines 2014 exemplifies our vision to celebrate
the spirit of Australian democracy, and the power of individual voices.

Mary Crawford, Roger Reading and Honor Lovis @ Houghton Winery

Event Title: Uncorked Exhibition.
Participating Artists: .

Venue: Houghton Winery, 148 Dale Rd Middle Swan.

Description: ARTISTIC TALENT UNCORKED AT HOUGHTON

Lovers of all things fine - whether art or wine - will enjoy a visit
Houghton's Winery during September for the Uncorked Exhibition. The
exhibition brings together the artwork of three popular Perth artists: Mary
Crawford, Roger Reading and Honor Lovis, whose works range from paintings on
canvas to fabric sculpture and repurposed objects found in nature.

The artists made the decision to come together for a group exhibition after
they all went on an art tour of Tuscany in the company of award-winning
Czech artist, Jana Vodesil-Baruffi, in 2014. Of the firm belief that art and
wine are a natural fit, the artists were pleased to partner with the
world-famous Houghton's Vineyard in the Swan Valley wine region as an
exhibition venue.

Their art represents an insight into three individual journeys through their
physical and emotional worlds. Visitors to the Exhibition will be surprised
by the diversity of the work from three distinct artists.
There are sunlit pastoral scenes reminiscent of peasant villages in France,
dramatic foreign cityscapes and stark Australian landscapes, as well as
artworks in evocative abstract and modern styles. Honor's three-dimensional
sculptures and Mary's gourd creatures also tend to delight and intrigue
art-lovers of all ages.

Uncorked is the artists' first group exhibition together. The artists will
be available to meet the public at the official opening on Sunday August 30
between 2pm and 4pm.
The Uncorked Exhibition commences on Saturday August 29, 2015 and is open
daily between 10am and 4pm until Wednesday September 30, 2015. Houghton's
Winery is located at 148 Dale Rd Middle Swan, just off Great Northern
Highway.

Dates: Saturday August 29, 2015 to Wednesday September 30, 2015.
