Nine Lives
Nine Lives is the embodiment of the lives of nine dudes and everything that they love. Opening in the October of 2008, these lads are the kind of guys who see the opportunity in something and don't waste time putting the wheels in motion. After approaching the owner of Mellinos, the upstairs storage space was swiftly transformed into a gallery space.
Brave New World: Chronicles Of Never end of season sale
Set in 2540AD, Aldous Huxley's novel Brave New World is one that has fascinated people to no end. In describing a society that revolves around reproductive technology and sleep-learning, people who've read the book are more than determined to find out just how valid Huxley's ideas are. But the game of patience is a tough one - especially when we won't find out for another 530 years.
At First Light
French and Murdoch Stafford could be related. Born of the same blood. These two, they have an affinity with the gnarliest of urban mythology and their drawings echo that very sentiment. Opening at Nine Lives this weekend, the two have found each other at long last to lay themselves down in front of the altar of invocation.

Shipping containers have been taking over the world! Not only due to our excessive want of cheap and easy products, but as rescued spaces in which people can party and get arty.

Platoon, a kind of open-source art network for reality has been operating out of shipping containers for the past few years and have made huge differences to the cities that their shipping containers inhabit.

Wild Times, Toby Malonie
Ryan McGinley once related skateboarding to photography in the way that both pursuits can make something out of nothing. He also hates skate art, and the blown-out-of-proportions reality of skateboarding and consumerism. Toby Malonie is a little like this. He prefers the 80s, when skateboarding was fresh; zinesters were still making zines in their bedrooms surrounded by a million posters and demo tapes.
