About Lightning Bolt

After 15 years of waiting, and praying, Lightning Bolt are finally touring Australia!

Hailing from Rhode Island, USA, Lightning Bolt is a noise rock duo consisting of bassist Brian Gibson and drummer Brian Chippendale. Last we left this amplified tribe of two on 2005s Hypermagic Mountain, Lightning Bolt were tossing thousand of years worth of musical history into a wood chipper and coming up with some chewy chainsaw taffy. The new album, Earthly Delights, embarks on a musical journey that will take you to places both divine and sublime.

Lightning Bolt are presented by Heathen Skulls and Street Press Australia.

Supported by the Premier's Arts Partnership Fund.

Hello ONO-philes

The concept behind ONO, is to utilize existing derelict urban spaces- in this case the old Education Department swimming pool at 212 Collins St, and for one night only to transform it into a site responsive art experience,showcasing the work of 20 locally and nationally recognised emerging artists working across a range of mediums.

The idea behind ONO, is to redefine the concept of Art Space, to free the work and the artists from the traditional gallery/exhibition mode of working and in choosing a site that is vacant/ derelict or due for demolition, to allow them the opportunity to thoroughly explore their response to the site without inhibition.

We are looking at this project with a hope to developing this theme in other non gallery spaces in the future both in Hobart and interstate.

ONO is about new art and new artists, working across a range of disciplines, an opportunity for the experimentation of ideas.

It is a celebration of the freedom that an artist run initiative allows emerging artists and art-forms and is comment on urban spaces as possible sites of artistic merit, and as being capable of serving an artistic function.

The recent success of our March One Night Only event is owed much to the fantastic community and artist support, so firstly, thanks to all of you who got in there and supported the project.
Also, special thanks to CAST gallery for their very generous support of the Project.
It was a great night, we have had fantastic feedback and we had a huge turnout.

If you missed it, a review can be read in the next edition of Artlink, and there wil be an article in the June edition of Apple also.

Having said that, if you did miss the show, do not despair, thre will be more ONO action in the not too distant future!

Stay tuned, and for now, here re some pics for your enjoyment, more pics to come...
