Description:
Like most ARIs, Seventh Gallery is a labour of love. Which is awesome and we love them for it, but our lovin' don't pay their rent. The SSSS is a genius egalitarian fundraiser that helps this great organisation, while earning you a sweet piece of art. Basically, 100 pieces of art are hung on the wall without names, and $40 buys you a red dot to stick on whatever piece grabs your eye, as well as a tasty beverage.

Platform Artists Group

Article published 1st Jan 08

Founded more then twenty years ago, back when it was freakish to do anything in a subway other than doodle towards the train station, Platform Artists Group is one of Melbourne's oldest artist-run initiatives. Puttin on exhibitions inside the cabinets in the Degraves Street underpass, Platform also curates a bigger 'vitrine' space in the subterranean Campbell Arcade (where an artist once lived for a week) and the display cases outside the Majorca Building upstairs in Centre Place.
