What:
The Times They Are The Changes
Where:
Utopian Slumps, 25 Easey St, Collingwood
When:
Launching Fri Nov 7, 6-9pm
Exhibition runs until Nov 29
The Changes' first Australian exhibition opens this Friday. The cause for celebration is warranted; The Changes art band project brings together Shauna T and Misha Hollenbach from P.A.M., Fergadelic from Tonite, and Sk8thing from A Bathing Ape and BBC, takes them out of their subcult-fashion domains and focuses their collective mental excursions on visual/physical experience.
It's a wild combination that's seen exhibitions all over the world (Tokyo, Milan, and happenings everywhere in between), fluid multiple identities (Boohoo Haha, Vertical Doorway, Roland Korg, Robot Asimov, Mr T Shirt, Boy George Michael, Veronique Cliché...), and incisive compositions that evoke and conflate all of the cultural phenomena of the last three decades.
This show follows on directly from their blockbuster appearance at the prestigious MU Eindhoven gallery in The Netherlands, that has hosted Ari Marcopoulos, Peter Sutherland and Cosmic Wonder, amongst so many others. Still on a high from that performance, this gig will be exceptional.

ThreeThousand is a subcultural guide to Melbourne, published daily and fired by email weekly. It is compiled by an amorphous gaggle of Melbourne writers, stylists, designers and photographers who all like huddling under that big umbrella we like to call creativity. Without editorial independence ThreeThousand has nothing. All editorial you read is featured because it's worth it - not because it's paid for.
