A platform for performance artists, musicians, sound artists, video and filmmakers, followed by an after Party.

Artist Oriana Fox will be composing an reinactment of Yves Klein's performance painting where he used "living paintbrushes". He covered nude women models with his signature blue paint (International Klein Blue, IKB) and then in a piece of performance art in front of an audience "painted" with them on large sheets of paper by directing them verbally. Instead of using naked women Fox will be using male performers.

Geisha brings to Elevator her exotic and erotic electro pop and the legendary Craig Template returns.

Also exciting new video art screenings and installation around the gallery space including Sarah Doyle's 'Dancehall Danceoff'.

Kiss Of A Lifetime


My piece in the Kiss Of A Lifetime show is based on the William March book and 1956 film “The Bad Seed”. The focus of the film is Rhoda a murdering sociopath child. She uses the phrase ‘what would you give me for a basket of kisses?’ to ingratiate herself and get what she wants from adults. Her syrupy facade hiding the fact she is a murderer and "a cold, self-sufficient child who plays by her own rules".


Start Time:
Saturday, February 14, 2009 at 5:30pm
End Time:
Saturday, February 28, 2009 at 4:00pm
