After two years of sold out shows in Canberra (packing in audiences of over 200pax), Decadence and Debauchery is coming to Melbourne for the first time, delivering vintage striptease with a modern twist.

The incredible and eclectic cast supports diversity in the burlesque world by bringing together women of colour, queer performers as well as intercultural artists in a high-quality, professional production. Decadence and Debauchery is a burlesque variety night happening at 8pm on Easter Sunday (21 April) at 24 Moons in Northcote, where the audience can enjoy drinks live music, sideshow acts, comedy and burlesque, at a very affordable price! At its core, burlesque is about the art of tease and that is exactly what people can look forward to!

Swell, by Katrin Koenning, highlights our current state of urgency in the environmental field. In this new body of work, seen for the first time at MGA, Koenning avoids expected tropes of disaster-imagery, offering counter-narratives in order to focus on what is at stake and to decipher how humans and nature impact on each other. The artist has had a long involvement with photography through photojournalism and long-form documentary projects, investigating and deciphering the ways that humans and nature impact each other. @mga_photography @k_koenning @areadingroom @eastwingphoto @climarteaus
Mark dispensed with his usual landscape imagery and realistic application to detail and created an internal world using broad painterly strokes and layers of complementary colour to create mood and depth. Consequently, the work illustrates a vibrant self-portrait of the artist in a pensive moment.

The premise for the exhibition Yerr Wetimbi yi Yerr Marrgu / Old Way & New Way is deceptively simple: linguist and artist / weaver Patricia Marfurra has made a huge and magical woven fishnet which Kieren Karritpul translates into delicate abstract paintings. The working relationship between mother and son Patricia Marfurra and Kieren Karritpul, however, reveals a shared commitment to sustainability and community: the artist's woven and painted tributes made old way and new way honour their ancestors and their teachings and demonstrate the way strong cultural connections in daily life can be maintained.
