The Beans at E-55
18th October, 2006 - 25th September, 2006
The Beans is the collective moniker of Melbourne artists Bonsai and Two. The pair have been working together harmoniously for a couple of years, summoning joyous, bright and colorful visions of fantasia into the world from a shared mind-space, Beans Land. As a rule to be broken, Two conjures the characters that populate Beans Land. Numbering among the exotic creatures and animals are flying fish, human-limbed elephants and deeply wise, knowing and serene mystic people. Bonsai sketches the landscapes - the world - that these characters color. It is a world of bouncing hillsides, flower-shaped clouds and cloud-like flora, with houses for Two\\\'s Beans-Landese to make their homes... -

The Adventures of Chazno at Cherry Tree Hotel
16th June, 2006 - 23rd June, 2006
This show is a bookmark in the story of Chazno G Fresh. About six years ago I did the first illustration of Chazno (the character) whilst I was supposed to be doing some boring arse job, I think I was counting cars or something for some company, anyway it sucked. So I made up this character which I thought was cool as, and was kind of my alter ego, or so I joked. I ended up doing some paintings with him in them early on. ... -

Couture Dreaming at Flinders Lane Gallery
23rd February, 2006 - 7th March, 2006
Candy Spender has pulled together eight other designers of fashion extraordinaire, with a brief to break the paradigm of the so-called what's-hot or what's-cool-now syndrome. For this exhibition each designer is more interested in expressing that part of thier work where the muse first dances in: that moment of inspiration, where one forgets what, when or how much this piece will cost, or who will wear it. We are dealing with �art from the heart�, these are pieces, which would usually get chopped, tucked or modified in such a way that they can be digested by the market place. Here they will be revealed in their entirety. Nothing is at stake, other than our own aesthetic... -

Wooden Toy Launch Party! at St. Jeromes
28th January, 2006 - 28th January, 2006
Issue One is upon us. So come basque with us in the fruits of our labour of love. After a year and a bit of juggling, tape cutting and walking blindly across the tightrope towards the light, it seems that we have reached the little platform on the other side. It's now time for us to take the face paint off, put the lion back in the cage and start training a new animal � Space travel. So, merge with us as we sip, swing and frolic to the sounds of Monkey the Merciless and wonder at the sights of freshly juiced artwork by Bonsai and Two on the famous �Rancho wall'. Like two friends separated by a cold war we will laugh as we meet, cry as we are separated, and then laugh again...
