Relative Magazine

In addition to the city apparel launch, Relative is stoked to announce a Fremantle show to be held at the South Beach Hotel on Friday the 19th February. This 2nd event allows those who can’t make it on the 20th at Ezra Pound, to come down and kick it in Freo.

Come down and celebrate the Fremantle launch of Relative Apparel. This new range sees Relative collaborating with local artists Richard Healy, Andy Kuypers, Peche, Jessie Mitchell, Mike Ellis, Storman Norman & Ayre. Relative DJ’s will be spinning their finest and the apparel will be available for purchase. Large-scale live art will also be performed by local artists on the night.

Doors open at 6pm.

Venue – The South Beach Hotel (396 South Terrace, South Fremantle)
Date / Time – Friday February 19th @ 6pm

Look forward to seeing you there!

To celebrate the depth of creative talent within our community, Relative host regular events that provide a forum for those with an open and creative mindset to congregate, celebrate, inebriate, and for the lucky ones amongst us procreate.

In addition to the publication, Relative has developed a range of original, high quality, wearable t-shirts to complement the print medium. Collaborations with local creatives have seen Relative Apparel take both a basic and unique design approach. Our aim is to commission artists regularly to design clothing that reflects the local creative culture whilst affording artists the opportunity to promote their talents on the backs of the local community. The garments will sell for $50 and be available exclusively through Relative events and relativemagazine.com.

A big thanks to everyone who made it out to the South Beach Hotel (formerly the Dav) on Saturday night for Relative’s inaugural Fremantle show. Hats off to all the artists (Richard Healy, Ryan Boserio, Troll), the DJ’s and Becks (who were good enough to put more than a few cold ones on the bar) to help make it an awesome night. Check out some photos of the live art below.

Have a rad Xmas and New Years and stay tuned for more Relative events in early 2010!

A massive thankyou to everyone who showed their support and made it down to Ezra Pound for the Relative Issue 3 launch on Saturday, making it an awesome night. Special thanks to all the boys that painted (Daek, Kid Zoom, Drew Funk & Sean Morris) & to the {move} DJ’s who killed it on the decks.

For those of you who couldn’t make it to Ezra Pound or just want to kick it again with the Relatives this weekend, we’re having a Freo launch at the Davilak this Saturday night (12th) from 6pm. Check out the Facebook events page for more information.

Cheers!

Relative

Make Mo-Friend, the third installment of the Make Friend art series of exhibitions, takes place on Saturday November 7 at the Norfolk basement. Showcasing the eclectic yet cohesive group of handpicked artists this event features the work of Dave Spencer, Tane Andrews and Dave Shaw. Make Mo Friend coincides with the month of Movember events at the Norfolk Hotel. Movemeber tee’s exclusively designed by Creepy, will be on sale at the exhibition. Gold coin donation to get in - bank goes to Canteen!

Friday the 9th October saw Slaughterblouse transform for Volume 3 of Clothespeg. With a DJ spinning records in the front yard, live painting, a temporary bar set up out the back and a massive showcase of 200 works from 80 contributing artists, this was an excellent exhibition in a fresh new space.

On Tuesday 15 September Western Australia’s Legislative Assembly voted to ban the sale of spray paint and markers over 6mm wide to people under 18. As early as next week the bill will be debated in the Upper House.

If passed, this will see WA have the most restictive laws in the country. It would make it a criminal offence to sell an 8 year old a bold calligraphy pen. A 10 year old a packet of fabric markers. A 17 year old student spray paint for their school assignment. There is no exceptions made for educational or employment purposes as there are in other states.

Whilst the bill is in the name of reducing graffiti, the reality is that the changes in the law will adversely effect a much broader cross section of the community. It will only add to the discrimination and demonisation faced by thousands of legitimate spray paint users, and the marker restrictions will be an impractical measure to hundreds of thousands more.
