Hazelhurst Arts Centre

Since opening in 2000, Hazelhurst Regional Gallery & Arts Centre has grown into one of the most popular art centres in NSW, and even Australia. Located just 40 minutes south of Sydney CBD near the gateway to the Royal National Park, Hazelhurst is an inspiring arts oasis set amid 1.4 hectares of landscaped gardens. The combination of a major public gallery and community gallery with a complete arts centre, state-of-the-art theatrette, artist-in-residence and café is quite unique, and enables Hazelhurst to offer a comprehensive creative resource.

Unboxing the cultural impact of sneakers

Sneakers are a cultural phenomenon made up of paradoxes. Some see them as an accessible and inclusive force in fashion that serve as an outlet of self-expression for many; yet to others they are a symbol of out-of-control consumerism. Two Queensland exhibitions are embracing these dualities, though from contrasting angles: Sneakers Unboxed: Studio to Street at HOTA on the Gold Coast, and Torsion at Brisbane’s Metro Arts.

Mike Parr on catharsis and confrontation

Since the 1960s Mike Parr has been defining performance art. Known for his performances of extremis, from hacking off a fake arm to burying himself underneath a Tasmanian road for three days. With a new, three-part exhibition at Anna Schwartz Gallery, Parr talks about catharsis, the institutionalisation of performance art, and the motivations behind what he does.
