“Finding love is an interesting road… it can come in forms you don’t expect, it can blossom brilliantly and then wither out, or evolve and take new forms. It can excite and terrify, it can be turbulent or it can just flow…
a fleeting moment, captured with reflections of light
and a beautiful card tower made by my beautiful man…
‘The Owl And The Pussycat Gallery - Everything is Dead While It Lives’
Group Exhibition34 Swan Street Richmond
June 7th - 18th 2011
“Everything Is Dead While It Lives” is an infamous quote from the Austrian painter Egon Schiele. A protégé of Gustav Klimt, Schiele was a major figurative painter of the early 20th century. The idea that ʻeverything is dead while it livesʼ is an existentially bizarre statement that brings into question the very aspect of what ʻdeadʼ and ʻlivingʼ means in terms of existence.
Eight Melbourne based artists have been gathered together by first-time curator, exhibitor and emerging visual artist Michael Laws, to create work in response to this quote and to reinterpret, represent or argue against this ambiguous philosophy.
With a diverse range of works from emerging artists working in a number of varying mediums, the show comprises pieces by artists from an assorted range of backgrounds and influences, the exhibition covers a large range of philosophies and attitudes in a number of varying aesthetic ways.
“Everything Is Dead While It Lives” Exhibition includes work by emerging artists:
Christopher D J OʼBrien, Clare “Rabbit” Lynch, Harry Hay, Matto Lucas, Melanie Joy Caple, Michael Laws, Nikolas Leuthold and Sam Hamilton, and includes work in the medium of traditional painting, illustration, photography, mixed media and film.
