Gentrification has never been so fashionable! The fashion parade was amazing- who would have thought there was so much talent right on our doorstep?!

Gentrification Has Never Been So Fashionable! So my obsession with a certain ridiculous series has been taken to the next level!Dressing my friends up and parading them down the runway as part of the next fundraising event for there goes the neighbourhood.Yep- there's even a catwalk and a walk off- Zoolander style!This is going to be hilarious!

There Goes The Neighbourhood Fundraiser Come on Friday!!This gig is a fundraiser to bring some of the international artists out to Sydney for There Goes The Neighbourhood.Are you yet another person who has had the rent jacked up and been outpriced and outed of your own space?...Inspired by this global phenomenon of gentrification, There Goes The Neighbourhood is an exhibition, film festival, workshops and publication about the politics of space happening in May at the Performance Space.The project brings together a group of local and international artists who have worked on various projects that have explored the relationship between community and space and we’re inviting them to develop these issues further in the contested local environment of Redfern.The artists involved are: Daniel Boyd, Brenda Croft, Lisa Kelly, SquatSpace, Claire Healy and Sean Cordeiro, Ned Sevil and friends (Australia), Temporary Services (USA), Jakob Jakobsen (Denmark), 16beaver (USA), Miklos Erhardt and Little Warsaw (Hungary), Michael Rakowitz (USA) and Bijari (Brazil).
