Joel Gailer and Michael Meneghetti come together in PERFORMPRINT, a live art project exploring the possibilities of printmaking, performance and masculinity.

This 7 minute video presents an overview of the 10 hour event performed at Fremantle Arts Centre (FAC) on September 22, 2012. This documentation chronicles the ritual aspects of the live event with its finale leading to Joel Gailer's live branding to the cacophony of Harley-Davidsons riding off into the sunset. 

With performances by Beer Fridge & Masonik

 Flesh Branding

PERFORMPRINT was developed through the FAC's Artist in Residence program and 2012 FAC Print Awards.

Barry William Hale unveils a new body of work entitled CIRKOS, inspired by the Enochian script of John Dee. Created as part of the HYPERCUBE210 Series, the large format paintings blur the line between text and image.

Calligrams are the figurative expressions of the interweaving of letters and word. The figurative application of calligraphy in many ways reflects the idea that the letters are a reflection of the natural world. As God could not be represented figuratively, he could be represented through his letters. Through masterful manipulation of the calligraphic arts and the ultilization of a number of different calligraphic techniques anthropomorphic and zoomorphic forms are created. These kinds of artistic expression were in the Islamic traditions usually to be only found in mystical circles.

Barry William Hale will be in attendance on opening night, and the performance collective, MASONIK will perform live.
