This Friday Dance Central farewells DJability on his trip O/S at Goodgods “dutty dancing” in the words of MIKE WHO – “this is the one night where Sydney’s finest Sound Systems will join forces within the walls of the Goodgod Danceteria for an unmissible night of Dancehall Reggae!It’s set to be an outrageous soundclash party that is expected to reach a heated Caribbean fever pitch when that clock strikes midnight. When the best of the best get together, the writhing cluster of jumping bodies will follow! Prepare to get sweaty wet on the floor for a night of dancing so dirty it would make Nicki Minaj blush. Expect the best of the old and new tropical riddims! $5 dollars all night! Looking forward to seeing you there for a whiiiiinnnne!

‘Playground’ an exhibition by Simon Hewson

dancecentral — Tue, 10 Apr 2012 11:01:47 +0000

Following on from the success of Shadowed By A Roadside, we are happy to announce that Simon Hewson will be exhibiting as part of this year’s Head On Photo Festival, with a new body of work titled, Playground.

Playground is a series of images from colourful Coney Island, NY, USA.

The air is full of screams, laughter and music, with the smell of hotdogs, fried onions and the occasional whiff of suncream floating by.

Hewson set out to capture the simplest of encounters, focusing on what makes Coney Island so wonderful, the people and its culture. A couple sharing a stolen kiss, a bored snake waiting to have his photo taken, the sun scorching colourfully painted walls and beach goers taking refuge under a water fountain.

Having captured people unguardedly shedding their inhibitions, getting lose and revelling in the gift of a sunny day by the beach, it results in an intimate body of work that celebrates fun, joy and life at Coney Island.

We would love for you to join us on opening night!

When: Thursday 3rd May

Time: 6-8pm

Where: gallery 2, gaffa gallery, 281 Clarence Street, Sydney, NSW, 2000.

Alternatively you can catch Playground at gaffa gallery from 3rd-15th May.
