Lloyd Stubber @ Apropos Provisonal

Event Title: Fossil Fuels.
Participating Artists: Lloyd Stubber.

Venue: Apropos Provisonal, 267 Hay st, Subiaco, Western Australia 6005.

Description: Young Melbourne-based photographer Lloyd Stubber has been
accompanying his father Ray, uncle Paul and sister Marlo to Phillip Island
to document the race, its enthusiasts and his family's place in it over the
last three years. Fossil Fuels serves as a repository for these images. Shot
between 2013 and 2015, the photographs that populate Stubber's fourth
publication not only speak of the action and aesthetics of old-school racing
- the blazing paint jobs, brash slogans and exacting attention to detail -
but of the various subcultures and family histories that inhabit it.
Co-published by Perimeter Editions and Bloom Publishing.

Dates: 30 October 2015 to 1 November 2015.
Opening Times: Fri (launch) 6-9pm; Sat-Sun 11-5pm.

Venue: Linton and Kay Gallery, Level 1 / 137 St Georges Terrace Perth WA

Description: Ever noticed a woman who effortlessly stands out from the
crowd?

She's the one dancing, howling at the moon and frankly, my dears, she just
doesn't give a damn. She's the predator lurking in the hallways, a siren
attracting denizens of the dark. We've all seen one, been friends with one,
or maybe we are one. Welcome to an exhibition of 11 of Western Australia's
best female artists which gloriously and unashamedly celebrates these
intriguing night flowers.

Women and flowers have long been associated for their beauty and passivity,
but The Valley of the Nightflowers exhibition at Linton and Kay Gallery in
November turns that on its head to celebrate rebellious women, unusual
flowers and beautiful, unconventional art.

Dates: 8 November 2015 to 22 November 2015.
Opening Times: Monday to Friday 10am-5pm; Saturday and Sunday 11am-4pm .

Andy Quilty @ Heathcote Museum & Gallery

Event Title: Hoon.
Participating Artists: Andy Quilty

Venue: Heathcote Museum & Gallery, 58 Duncraig Road, Applecross.

Description: Heathcote Museum & Gallery's 2015 'TILT' artist is Andy Quilty,
who presents 'Hoon' - a solo exhibition of new works.

'Hooning', a term favoured by authorities, references the act of performing
'burnouts' - a deliberate imprint of melted rubber left by a motor vehicle
in a physical recording of oneself onto the suburban environs.

In Hoon the artist examines notions of the burnout as a suburbanite marking
of territory within a historical and post colonial context. Drawing upon the
social and physical history of Point Dundas and surrounding areas, ideas
around ownership, entitlement and sense of place form the basis of enquiry.


Dates: 14 November 2015 to 20 December 2015.
Opening Times: Tues-Fri, 10am to 3pm; Sat-Sun, 12 noon to 4pm; closed
Mondays .
