The Balcony is an exhibition by artist Selina Foote that is currently being shown at Two Rooms. The Balcony presents a series of geometric acrylic and graphite works on canvas that emerge from familiar 19th century paintings and their reproductions. 

Through a process of self prescribed rules Foote transforms these reproduction images of 19th century paintings, radically defamiliarizing them and bringing them into a place of full geometric abstraction. Lost within their own technologies of reproduction but also pulling them back into a place of painterly materiality. 

Maya had a chat with Selina about the show and overall practice.

Happy Friday! Today on bFM Breakfast with Rosetta and Milly: Travelling Tunes with Dr Kirsten Zemke, a kōrero with Jack from Mouthful Radio about their new compilation, and From The Crate with Cam from Southbound! Whakarongo mai nei!

The Oshima Gang is an exhibition by Theo Macdonald, currently showing at RM Gallery. 

Macdonald is a Tāmaki-based interdisciplinary artist with a focus on still and moving documentary photography and cinematography to explore his interest in public expressions of militarism, national identity, and collective and personal memories. 

As an experimental documentary, The Oshima Gang sees Macdonald revisiting five colonial institutions in Tāmaki Makaurau that were featured in Japanese filmmaker Nagisa Ōshima’s ‘Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence’, which came out in 1983. 

Using Fūkeiron, or Landscape Theory, as a mode of cinematic communication – layering Super 8 film with archival text and raw production audio – Macdonald uses these sites of colonial architecture to invite viewers to consider and critique our identity in Tāmaki Makaurau, placing historical ideas, documents, and international relationships in dialogue with our present. 

Sof had a kōrero with Theo Macdonald about The Oshima Gang and these thematic interests that underpin his practice.
