David Mutch curated that Last Days of Polaroid show at Blindside late last year. It was a memorable one, a photo show set up like a closing down sale.

Arnsdorf is a municipality in the district of Bautzen in Germany. Wikitravel doesn't rate it, and if you took fashion cues from the townspeople you'd probably end up looking like this. So when I say that Arnsdorf has opened a pop-up store on Gertrude Street, I'd like to think you all know I'm talking about the other Arnsdorf, the classic femme label helmed by Jade Sarita Arnott.

Opening tonight! Thurs Nov 19, at 6pm.

Description:
Why don't Arnsdorf have their own shop? Where are you from, yesterday? They're opening a little pop up shoperoo on Gertrude Street tonight! Meanwhile, the Gertrude Association is dealing with the pop up shop invasion by building a second Gertrude Street underground, much like Mao tunnelled under Beijing in preparation for the nuclear holocaust.

Description:
You may already know Antuong Nguyen's psyched-out aesthetic from his videos, photomontage prints and ventures with Moop Jaw (directing clips for the likes of Peaches, Hawnay Troof and QUA). But whatever you've seen, it's the promised inclusion of 'an epic 10-minute psycho-geographic romance film made entirely of YouTube footage', that makes for certain Antuong's next solo exhibition at Seventh will give us a chance to lurk into a strange but appealing deep corner of his mind that, as the show's bizarre title might suggest, is itching to introduce itself.

Description:
What is there not to like about Gertrude's Brown Couch? It's warm, it's intimate, and it's possessed of the kind of atmosphere that lets you completely submerge yourself into the ethereal world of music; or the depths of a brown couch, or a pint, or perhaps some sordid thoughts. Adelaide noise-folk-songsters Cheer Advisory Council have an arresting mix of five-singer harmonies, surging violin leads and classical piano touches.
