So, my camera on my phone hates me, and it seems that I won’t be posting any pictures from it any time soon. It’s a real shame, too, cuz I’ve got some great photos of works by the likes of Simon Gush, Gerhard Marx and Theresa Collins over at the Drill Hall opening from Wednesday night – and Id’ love to share. Show is in a great space with a lot of smart art; Simon Gush’s work is especially subtle and beautiful.<\/p>\n
Other photos I’m unable to share with you include Bronwyn Findlay pix from David Krut (worth seeing), Alex Trapani at the Gallery Premises (structurally unsound and wonderfully evocative), Joao Orecchia (great musician) at some weird fashion show, the Moscow Circus (nuff said) and Lara Rivera at her Franchise desk (mostly boring).<\/p>\n
But I guess my lack of photos and explanations gives you less to read; you may consider yourself all caught up with the joburg art scene now!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
