We’re throwing a BLOCK PARTY!
And you are invited!

The twentyten project was a super success, so we thought we would showcase the creative talents of the twentyten participants.

Not a participant, but want to join in? Come and try some DIY! We also need you to put the finishing touches to the showcase – free-form your tattoo designs onto our mannequin Frank, put together a badge, leave your mark, or say something out loud on the Polaroid.
If you want to break into the industry, this is also an opportunity to mingle with the arts people in the know, as workshops facilitators will be there too.
There’ll be music, party food and cordial on tap. Doors will be open at 3pm. The afternoon will be super relaxed so you can come to KURB whenever you like.

Bring your whole neighbourhood, and we hope to see you there!

This event has been produced as a project funded by the Youth Development and Support Program that is managed by the Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations.

The 2010 HotBed Ensemble present:

The Shape of Things
By Neil LaBute

Season:14 – 30 May 2010
Venue:Perth Institute of Contemporary Arts (PICA)
Director:Adam Mitchell
Featuring:The 2010 HotBed Ensemble

A chance meeting between Evelyn, a renegade art student and Adam, a nerdy English Lit Major, sets in motion a cautionary tale of deceit and manipulation.

Evelyn offers Adam the tools to dramatically reinvent himself both physically and psychologically. Though how far should you go for the one you love?

A shocking dissection of cruelty, seduction and the artistic process, The Shape of Things has a startling twist, which has made this work a modern American classic. Adding to the HotBed Ensemble's list of outstanding collective projects, Neil LaBute's most successful and savage work.

“The most legitimately provocative and polarizing playwright at work today.” New York Magazine

“…The Shape of Things…is chilling and has much to say about a society in which an increasing number of young people suffer from anorexia and parents give their children cosmetic surgery for their sixteenth birthday. Bravo LaBute!” CurtainUp

Bookings: BOCS Ticketing, ph (08) 9484 1133, www.bocsticketing.com.au/events/shape_things.shtml.

Hatched is Australia's most significant survey of emerging artists.

Heading into its 19th year, this landmark exhibition continues to provide an unparalleled opportunity for talented art school graduates to present their work in a professional gallery context alongside that of their national peers. It offers an all-important stepping-stone from the realm of education to the beginnings of a professional career as an artist.

This year 39 artists from 20 art schools across the country were selected to grace the vast galleries of PICA. Bear witness to these contemporary pioneers as they head into new artistic territory with their extreme mix of expanded drawing and painting practices, soft architecture and aural environments - amongst other eye, mind and ear-bending aesthetic experiments!

Hatched expands further in 2010 with the launch of the Doctor Harold Schenberg Art Prize, an annual award of $20,000 that will be presented to one Hatched artist each year. The Prize has been set up to allow an outstanding art school graduate to invest in the development of their practice through travel, research or production support.
