A Solo Exhibition by P. James Bryans
14 July - 31 July 2010
Do you remember your childhood?
Do you remember what you saw?
Do you remember the feeling? The wonder, the innocence?
Do you remember everything or just the important bits?
For P. James Bryans it was a childhood full of daydreams, farm life and wonder of the bushland down the back block, the thousands of colours in a single blade of grass... the universe.
Growing up on an idyllic farmlet he spent his days (after the animals had been fed) wandering through the bush and giving his imagination free reign.
Now, as an adult, he aims to capture the fleeting moments that we treasure, imperfect and incomplete, but which we hold precious and which make us who we are.

Rounds is an exhibition of nine cutting-edge Western Australian artists that radically engage with issues of peer influence through a self-generating exhibition process. Working through a series of four cycles, it started on 5 September 2009 and continues through 27 March 2010. Each artist responds to a work made in the previous cycle by another artist in the group. The fruits of this ambitious and transparent creative process will be brought together and curated in a dynamic installation throughout PICA's central galleries, which will display the 32 artworks created in each of the four cycles.

Bevan Honey will develop an ambitious new body of work for PICA's Westend gallery consisting of futile machines alongside architectural and drawn elements that explore the opposing impulses of excess and restraint. Modernist utopias, failed buildings projects, financial burn outs and economic crashes and recovery are interrogated using scaled up drawings, models, stencils, mark making and inventions. Honey's expanded drawing practice contemplates multiple histories - art histories, as well as the cultural and geo-political histories of the state.

PICA is proud to present the first Australian showing of Berlin-based Ignacio Uriarte's new film entitled The History of the Typewriter Recited by Michael Winslow (2009). Actor/comedian Michael Winslow, famous for his role in the slapstick Police Academy movies and his gifted ability to orally mimic any sound, is seen in a studio recording an oral history of the typewriter. The title of the work dictates the content of the film as the title phrase is typed repeatedly through the keystrokes of 32 different typewriters,each mimicked by Winslow.

Nearly every model of typewriter from the 1880s to the 1980s is sampled, allowing the viewer to contemplate a century of war correspondence, manifestoes, literary classics and private love letters.

Hours: open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week!
