Room to Live Again
A couch, sleeping bag, lamp, guitar, laptop and a hermit crab tank. These are Ian Wadley's belongings furnishing Bus Gallery's tiniest nook. After a three-year world trip, Ian will be living in the gallery for the next three weeks. He isn't just installing his personal life into the space, however.
Sunshine & Grease launch festival
There was once a certain rock band who intentionally produced an album that was so left-field that their heavyweight record company, Virgin, had to break their contract and pay them a cool million under the table just to prevent it being released. These talented swindlers released a song called ‘Sunshine & Grease' and this is the name of the print, music and film store opening up within the intimate walls of the Bus Gallery this Thursday (at midday).
Skin ‘n Bones
PM's friend: Oh herro. So what are you wearing to the dress-up party?
PM: Um. I was thinking of wearing my Lara Croft outfit.
PM's friend: PS that is so lame, it's just black bike shorts and some hankies in your bra. And a plastic gun. And a 4WD Jeep with no doors that attaches to a helicopter. OK it is not lame.

Supple
Bus Gallery's corridor space is about as wide as the email/website you're reading, but as Alice Lang's bulbous and grotesque Supple, you'll feel like you're communing with an alien god in an uneasy ceremony somewhere in deep space. Three portraits of the art-parasite in symbiosis with a willing participant sit on the left of the gallery space, while the thing itself sits ominously at the rear, pulsating and coruscating with equal parts sensuality and dread.
Skin and Bones
For the past six years, Bus Gallery has been serving Melbourne’s art community like no other space in the city. Supporting sound art, installations, painting, photography, design and music, Bus now broaches new ground with an exhibition of costume pieces inspired by curator Pat O’Brien’s commitment to performance.
