From the 19th-23rd November 2014, BRIGHTSPACE (gallery) in St Kilda presented Punk Journey: St Kilda + Beyond - an
exciting and all–encompassing Punk Exhibition and series of Punk events.
With a strong focus on St Kilda as the
historical epicentre of the vibrant Melbourne Punk scene 1977-1987, as well as
a celebration of contemporary Melbourne punk 2004-2007, this unique and high
calibre exhibition was coordinated by punk historian
Melynda von Wayward.
An audio visual
menagerie combined with authentic Punk artefacts, photos and historical
information helped to create a high calibre exhibition that reflected the
counter-culture and anti-establishment imagery of Melbourne punk, while
simultaneously juxtaposing the ‘Now and Then’ aesthetics of the Melbourne punk
subculture.
