By Steven Carlton Commissioned by The Arts Centre Gold Coast
The Beche de Mer has seen better days. What was once a fabulous beach guest house is now an old fibro shack nestled amongst the Gold Coast high rises, in stark need of renovation…or demolition. It’s also worth a mint. Tegan Bennett lives there with her demented grandmother Philomena, and dreams of becoming the successful businesswoman her grandmother once was. One night, Tegan’s father comes crashing into their lives, determined to sell the property and share the $2 million profit. It sounds like the answer to Tegan’s prayers. But there’s one thing neither of them have taken into account … the strength of Tegan’s attachment to the Beche de Mer. Inspired by Fibro Coast the exhibition!

fibro Coast In the era before motels and resorts, a holiday at the Gold and Sunshine coasts usually meant either pitching a tent and camping by the beach or staying in a simple cottage owned by family or friends. Simplicity, informality, individuality and increasingly a design that acknowledged a connection to outdoor living were the hallmarks of these humble places. At a time now when rapid change to the urban fabric of the Coasts is taking place, a few of these buildings remain, and hold with them, many layers of memory of this holiday history of relaxation and escape.
design legacy of the humble fibro beach house, and through the work of artists and architects allows us to take another look at these quiet and disappearing places. The exhibition features the work of artists who have holidayed here from the 1920s and painted views of the beach cottage experience including Vida Haley, Lloyd Rees and Ethel Carrick Fox. Also featured are contemporary artists who have made works that respond to the resonance of the fibro shack within our community including Anna Carey, Bruce Reynolds, Rebecca Ross and Elaine Campaner.
Fibro Coast aims to creatively re-engage with the cultural, artistic, and architectural and DATE VENUE COST

Sebastian di Mauro: Surf `n´ Turf Highly acclaimed Brisbane artist Sebastian di Mauro will showcase a playful sculptural installation of artificial plastic grass and colourful neoprene – the rubbery stuff that wet suits are made of. His exhibition, Surf ‘n’ Turf taps into some of the aspirations of the suburban Australian dream, and acknowledges that a large percentage of the population live on or close to the coast, and that despite being drought-prone, there is a strong desire to create and maintain the evergreen manicured lawn and a ‘little piece of heaven on earth’.

Renegades: Outsider Art The colourful and expressive artworks presented in Renegades: Outsider Art come from a spectrum of makers: studios supporting people with intellectual disabilities, community care centres, psychiatric settings and outer geographical reaches, or from purely free spirits. These ‘unlikely’ makers brim with creativity without academic instruction, connections to commercial or public art galleries, marketing, critics or art schools. And yet the artworks demonstrate powerful connections and deep emotional insight . Renegades: Outsider Art is a KickArts Contemporary Arts touring exhibition created in partnership with Arts Project Australia and funded by Visions of Australia, an Australia Council for the Arts initiative.

Edwin Bode: Pioneering Artist of the Gold Coast Hinterland Region English-born Edwin Bode immigrated to Queensland in 1882, aged 23 and is regarded as the first colonial artist to have resided in our region. With poor health unsuited to the rigours of farming, he moved to the Gold Coast hinterland where he lived a more itinerant life, painting watercolours of homesteads and farms in the emerging communities of Canungra, Wonglepong and Mt Tambourine. The exhibition charts Bode’s evolution of seeing the bush landscape of Australia as an English emigrant arriving in the region at the time of early European settlement and also shows how he became fascinated with photography, learning the laborious techniques of glass plate negatives to create some of the earliest photographic images of the area. His works show the patterns of early settlement, attachment to the land and a reflection on the displacement of local indigenous people. DATE VENUE COST

Saltwater Country Many exhibitions of Australian Aboriginal art focus on the intrinsic nature of aboriginal culture and its connection to land and place of birth. ‘Country’ has come to be understood an allencompassing word to explain this relationship. What is less understood by many audiences nationally and internationally is the equally strong cultural connectedness to the sea that is very distinctive to the Queensland indigenous experience. The long coastline of this large state is much more than a defining border in shaping the development and style of artworks here. The DATE VENUE COST
saltwater country is a place of bounty and trade; of conflict and connection and these waters facilitate movement of peoples across vast distances and the tidal and seasonal flows structure the rhythms of the day and the year. Fifteen artists present new works that reflect their cultural understanding and intimate relationship to this potent site where land meets the sea. During the exhibition period watch out for a lively program of talks, workshops and site specific installations.
