October Gallery

  1. Recurring event

    Cohen is one of the most outstanding artists of our time. This exhibition will feature Cohen's famous mylar images which he created in the late 60's in his loft on the Lower East Side, New York City. Among the artists reflected in his mirror were John McLaughlin, William Burroughs, Jimi Hendrix and Angus Maclise. A culmination of the photographer's fascination with the mirror, these photographs come from the very heart of the mirror from the fabled other side. Ira Cohen, poet, photographer, filmmaker, traveller was born on February the 3rd, 1935 to deaf parents, began developing his vision at one year learning to spell with his fingers.

    Samantha Hobson is one of a handful of young celebrated Aboriginal artists exhibiting widely both in her native Australia and abroad. Samantha Hobson began painting with the Lockhart River Art Gang, a group of young Indigenous painters from the remote Lockhart River community on the east coast of the far northern tip of Queensland. The Lockhart River Art Gang grew out of an alternative secondary school programme. The Art Centre soon became the nucleus for a dynamic school of creative development. Hobson is one the original group who are now forging successful solo careers. Her work is inspired by the beauty of the East Cape and by the fast disappearing traditional beliefs, with darker references to domestic violence and harsh social conditions experienced by many Aboriginal peoples in isolated communities.
