SUMMARY:Strangers on the Shore
DESCRIPTION:WAM WARDANUP – Strangers on the Shore is an exhibition about cross-cultural encounters along the arc of Western Australian’s coastline. It follows narrative threads that run from the 1600’s onwards\, looking at early encounters between First Nations peoples and Macassan and Chinese traders and European shipwreck survivors. \nInvited artists respond to the WA Maritime Museum archival collection of the same name. This archive is ‘an electronic database containing all known European and Asian shipwrecks around Western Australia’s coastline where survivors have had Indigenous social contact.’Through interrogating this archive and the many stories of shipwreck\, survival and cross-cultural encounter\, the artists engage in a critique of colonialism\, shine a light onto and question accepted histories\, acknowledge truths and imagine other possibilities.  \nAccross a diversity of media\, works of invited artists are placed in conversation with significant works from the Janet Holmes à Court Collection\, Mossenson Gallery and artefacts from the Western Australian Maritime Museum. \nThis exhibition asks that we re-visit accepted histories and try to better understand shared moments of our collective past that propel myth and shape our sense of cultural identity.  \nArtists  \nKelsey Ashe with Sandra Harben\, Johnny Bulun Bulun\, Sandra Hill\, Jo Darbyshire with Cherish Marrington and David Cherrin\, Laurel Nannup\, Anna Nazzari\, Lea Taylor and Michael Jalaru Torres.  With thanks to Mossenson Gallery for the loan of artwork and WA Maritime Museum for the loan of artefacts. \nTo be officially opened by Janet Holmes à Court AC \nWith opening ceremony and welcome by Sandra Harben

SUMMARY:The Water Concerto
DESCRIPTION:Both visually and sonically stunning\, The Water Concerto by Tan Dun is an atmospheric evocation of the sounds of rural China\, where the composer grew up. From the gentle rhythms of women washing laundry in the river to the excited splashes of children playing in the water\, this is a piece that immerses audiences in the sounds of distant shores. \nThe soloist manipulates water through the use of instruments which have been specifically designed for this piece\, and are accompanied by a small chamber ensemble of strings\, clarinet and piano. Moments of the performance also respond to the surrounding Perth Festival exhibition\, Strangers on the Shore\, which explores the encounters between indigenous populations and European and Asian shipwreck survivors on the West Coast of Australia. \nPerformed and designed by Thea Rossen and Jared Yapp of the Ad Lib Collective in collaboration with the Holmes à Court Gallery\, this performance is otherworldly\, dramatic and captivating. \n7pm : Door/Bar Opens – Wine sales available  [NB. cashless purchases only]\n8pm : Concert commencesBoth visually and sonically stunning\, The Water Concerto by Tan Dun is an atmospheric evocation of the sounds of rural China\, where the composer grew up.
