South enCOUNTER at Craft Victoria

   

In partnership with Craft Victoria and the L'Oreal Melbourne Fashion Festival, The South Project is proud to present 

MELBOURNE: Bond from the Inside Out

Claudia Beyancourt and Ricardo Pulgar
3 - 23 March  2008

Craft Victoria

A humble – while simplistically bold – reflection of cultural icons within Melbourne's local life, a project and consequence of an intercontinental bridge along the Southern Hemisphere. Latin America's WALKA conceptualizes Melbourne's daily journeys of life via contemporary jewelry, an intimate game between the local self-looking glass and 21st century fashion. 

This event is part of the 2008 L'Oréal Melbourne Fashion Festival Cultural Program

Text Camp at Next Wave: applications now open!

Next Wave is delighted to announce that applications are now open for TEXT CAMP, a mentorship program for emerging arts writers as part of the 2008 Next Wave Festival.

TEXT CAMP, presented by Next Wave in association with Express Media and un Projects, provides an opportunity for emerging writers to work with and learn from established writers, to build networks and contribute to critical and creative discourse around the 2008 Next Wave Festival, and contemporary art practice more broadly. Comprising two parallel teaching streams which explore either creative writing or critical writing methods, TEXT CAMP will explore the many ways that artworks and performance projects can be responded to through writing.

TEXT CAMP is a three-stage program involving a workshop, a mentorship and a publication outcome. The program will be led by two prominent young Australian writers, Rosemary Forde and Nic Low.

Applications are due 5.00pm on Friday 14 March 2008 (post-mark date).
