Exhibition – Trouble In Paradise – Paradise Hills – Melbourne

We’re always excited by shows over at Paradise Hills, and “Trouble In Paradise” is set to be another fine assed and raucous display of a swath of talented artists! We’re also always particularly enamoured by shows that have a musical theme, so this one is right down our alley.

“The show reflects on how many artists draw their inspiration from music and are often informed by it or influence it in some way. This particular exhibition focuses on rock music and the underground music scene in Melbourne and Australia.

Melbourne, with it’s many hidden laneways and thriving pub culture, has a rich history in sprouting the careers of some of the many international sensations that have come out of this country. Venues like the Cherry Bar in ACDC Lane and The Espy in St.Kilda are a mecca for the rock enthusiast to see some of the new talents in rock and roll performers. And this tradition continues today and can be seen in the public eye through the many bill posters for rock and music gigs lining the streets of the inner city.

Curated by Dean Thompson and assisted by Michael Staniak, Trouble in Paradise features sixteen carefully selected artists that work with music as a subject, or are associated with it in someway in their lives. For Paradise Hills the show has a place close to the heart of the gallery, as for over a year now the gallery has been featuring many emerging and cult bands at the numerous opening celebrations. It is a forum for music and visual art to combine at it’s elemental level. In keeping with the tradition of the gallery’s curated shows, the exhibition will highlight a mix of well established artists supporting the talents of some young or emerging up-and-comers in visual arts in Australia. The exhibition will also have a guest artist from Denmark, lending an international eye to this very Australian oriented showcase.

Headlining this show is Melbourne band THIS WEATHER. These guys rocked our last show and will be joined by a couple more surprised bands yet to be announced. We will keep you posted in the coming days. Bands start around 7, so don’t miss it!”
