Please check their services out for your needs. https://recreate.gallery THE HOST'S NOTES: In this episode, I delightfully spoke with two Melbourne based young artists: Teresa Hsieh and John Gosper about the art shows and events that they had recently seen and experienced. They shared fantastic insights and knowledge about the exhibiting artists and works in those shows. Both artists, in unplanned way, specifically addressed the exhibitions produced by two Australian Indigenous artists, Ashley Perry and Christian Thompson. We discovered a common ground in these two artists' poetic and abstract expression of their interpretation of the lost and disappearing cultural traditions. From John's recollection of Grace Jones's flamboyant performance in Adelaide, we couldn't help to bow to Grace Jone's long and active career as an artist, performer and cultural icon and her sharp and daring qualities as a woman. Well. I hope that you enjoy listening to the 2nd episode of Three Bellybuttons and bear more patience with my stumbling speeches. As this episode was recorded in my kitchen, there were some unavoidable background noises. My apology. Also, please check out the exhibitions that we have talked in this episode. I'd love hear your comments on either the exhibitions or this podcast or both. Podcast blog: https://threebellybuttonspodcast.blogspot.com.au/2018/03/2-new-exhibitions-at-seventh-gallery.html

2. Seventh Gallery's new shows, 2 gigs in Adelaide festival 2018 with Teresa Hsieh & John Gosper

For this episode, I spoke with Nikki Lam and Sophia Cai about two exhibitions: Unfinished Business: Perspectives on art and Feminism at Australian Centre for contemporary Art, and Triennial at National Gallery of Victory. ** I would like to proudly acknowledge the great success of the protests from international artists and activists against Wilson Security that is the ex-contractor of the NGV and provides services on Manus Island and Nauru. This news was released on the 28th of February after this episode is recorded.** https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2018/feb/28/national-gallery-of-victoria-dumps-wilson-security-over-offshore-detention The notes from the host: I always enjoy talking about arts with Sophia and Nikki. We share so much common ground: the female gaze; the cross-cultural perception; the interests of political, cultural and moral conflicts; the sense of humour; the scream-like laughs; as well as, the great passion for food (fried chicken, in particular). However, it is our distinguishing ways of interpreting artwork and different sets of knowledge in arts that have made our conversations so seductive and addictive. I am pleased that through listening and talking to Nikki and Sophia this time, I have gained new perspectives to see the two exhibitions that I have seen. I hope that the listeners will have the same rewarding experience as I do. In addition, I would also like to apologise to the brave listeners for the 'DIY' quality of this episode. Please forgive my immature performance, broken English and millions of gap filling word "hmmm". I only hope your patience and faith. I will do my best to professionalise this podcast and make a smooth listening experience. Please stay in tune!
