SUMMARY:Rehearsing the City: Photography exhibition
DESCRIPTION:On display are photographs sourced from the collections of Victoria’s State and National Archives\, as well as work by contemporary photographers responding to Victoria’s urban environment: Ai Tam Do\, Adrian Leung\, Suzanne Phoenix\, Ted Richards\, Sande Harsa\, Mark Forbes\, Melanie Cobham\, Michael Currie\, Andrew Tan\, Hashem McAdam\, Chris Bekos and Deb Stembridge. \nBoth the archival and contemporary images examine how public space is not just shaped by architects and urban planners\, but also by protest\, improvisation and the rhythms of daily life. Communities and individuals constantly use the built environment in creative or unexpected ways\, reinterpreting or subverting its intended design. These acts of resistance show that urban environments are not static – they grow and adapt with their inhabitants. Design can guide\, but it is the everyday actions of people that give public space its meaning and its future. \nThe exhibition is open throughout October\, 10 am–4:30 pm weekdays\, and 10 am–4 pm every second and last Saturday of the month.

SUMMARY:Rehearsing the City: Photography exhibition
DESCRIPTION:On display are photographs sourced from the collections of Victoria’s State and National Archives\, as well as work by contemporary photographers responding to Victoria’s urban environment: Ai Tam Do\, Adrian Leung\, Suzanne Phoenix\, Ted Richards\, Sande Harsa\, Mark Forbes\, Melanie Cobham\, Michael Currie\, Andrew Tan\, Hashem McAdam\, Chris Bekos and Deb Stembridge. \nBoth the archival and contemporary images examine how public space is not just shaped by architects and urban planners\, but also by protest\, improvisation and the rhythms of daily life. Communities and individuals constantly use the built environment in creative or unexpected ways\, reinterpreting or subverting its intended design. These acts of resistance show that urban environments are not static – they grow and adapt with their inhabitants. Design can guide\, but it is the everyday actions of people that give public space its meaning and its future. \nThe exhibition is open throughout October\, 10 am–4:30 pm weekdays\, and 10 am–4 pm every second and last Saturday of the month.
