Our friends over at the Sydney radio station, FBi, are having a huge art auction called Still Life to raise much needed funds to keep the station afloat. Around forty of Australia’s finest artists have donated their work for the auction to be held at the MCA on Friday July 3 and then partially online the week after that. It’ll also be open to the public as a mini exhibition on Saturday July 4.

 

Arkansas illustrator Edward Kinsella certainly has a way with a brush and paint. The work on his website is nothing short of gorgeous, in all its muted painterly glory.

Metronomy are a cool little London-based group headed by producer and remix extraordinaire, Joseph Mount. The sound sits somewhere between Autechre and Vitalic: clanging keyboards and body-gurning beats laced with an undercurrent of ominous electronica. It’s not as inaccessible as much of the more twisted electro-based stuff out there at the moment, although it retains an edge perhaps unpalatable for some ears. Yet there’s a catchiness to it that is clearly roping in the crowds: their live shows are a spectacle, complete with synchronised dancing and flashing costumes. If that floats your boat, they’re playing for free at the Tate Britain, London, on 27 September.
