“Inception” does a difficult thing. It is wholly original, cut from new cloth, and yet structured with action movie basics so it feels like it makes more sense than (quite possibly) it does.” ***** Roger Ebert

“Christopher Nolan’s cerebro-tech thriller may be short on story, but makes up for it with staggering fantasy set pieces.” ***** The Guardian

“Arguably the perfect blockbuster” ***** AV FORUMS

No partner; No ropes; No margin for error
As the sport of climbing turns from a niche pursuit to mainstream media event, Marc-André Leclerc climbs alone, far from the limelight. On remote alpine faces, the free-spirited 23-year-old makes some of the boldest solo ascents in history. Yet, he draws scant attention. With no cameras, no rope, and no margin for error, Marc-André’s approach is the essence of solo adventure.
Intrigued by these quiet accomplishments, veteran filmmaker Peter Mortimer (The Dawn Wall) sets out to make a film about Marc-André. But the Canadian soloist is an elusive subject: nomadic and publicity shy, he doesn’t own a phone or car, and is reluctant to let the film crew in on his pure vision of climbing. As Peter struggles to keep up, Marc-Andrés climbs grow bigger and more daring. Elite climbers are amazed by his accomplishments, while others worry that he is risking too much.
Then, Marc-André embarks on a historic adventure in Patagonia that will redefine what is possible in solo climbing. THE ALPINIST is an intimate documentary of a visionary climber who follows the path of his own passion, despite the heaviest of possible consequences.

BARKING MAD @ NINBELLA
2021-07-23 - 2021-08-14
Barking Mad by Nell Schofield
In these barking mad times, striking bark art reminds us to stay grounded and surrounded by meaningful stories. Ninbella has assembled a powerful stash of bark art works from local and Yolngu artists to help us navigate these extremely strange days. Lae Oldmeadow’s upholstered Hoop Pine bark tree totems stand like ancient sentinels along one wall of the Bangalow gallery. Hand crafted in Blue Knob, these seven pieces communicate centuries of growth in meticulous interwoven layers.
On the opposite wall are ochre paintings on Stringybark panels from Yirrkala, a remote community 700 kms east of Darwin in Arnhem Land. Featuring the distinctive cross-hatching designs of the region intermingled with black sparkling sand from the surrounding beaches, these works speak to each artists’ deep connection to country.
Gallery director Grant Rasheed recently travelled to the remote Indigenous community controlled art centre Buku-Larrngay Mulka to personally select these works along with a collection of Larrakitj (memorial poles) which form the centrepiece of the exhibition ‘Barking Mad’.“It was a real honour for me to meet some of these artists personally and to support the wonderful work of the Buku Arts Centre,” Grant said. The Centre’s name translates as “the feeling on your face as it is struck by the first rays of the sun”, and there is reference to the eternal cycle of new life and death in these mesmeric pieces. Sacred yet public ceremony designs are interpreted in uniquely individual ways. In response to a challenge about her right to paint the fishtrap imagery of her own clan, Djirrirra Wununmurra assumed the unique identity of Yukuwa (bush yam), a traditional food source whose annual reappearance is a metaphor for the increase and renewal of her people and their land. She explores this by etching her own contemporary take on the ceremonial yam grounds in nearby Stringybark forests onto white earth pigments.
84 year-old Baluka Maymuru is an “artist of truth”, practicing his sacred cultural connections on massive panels that depict his homeland estate and its ritual focal point on the Northern entrance of Blue Mud Bay on the Western coast of the Gulf of Carpentaria. Ritual body painting for cleansing ceremonies has been transferred on to three stunning hollow, Stringybark poles by Galawupa Garrawurra who died tragically at the age of only 28.
These Larrakitj were originally used as ossuaries or bone containers erected as memorials to dead kinsmen but are now widely created as modern sculptures that in Garrawurra’s case display a minimalist elegance.
All these works speak to a tradition that stretches way back to the “first sunrises”. It was a Yirrakala bark art work painted in 1963, now housed in the National Museum of Australia, that became the first formal assertion of Indigenous native title. Current works from this community continue to express deep cultural integrity and assertion of land ownership. Exhibited in dialogue with Oldmeadow’s spine-tingling totems, these barks and sculptures present a cheeky yet imaginative play on the use of this most primal material.

Byron Ballet Company’s soiree will transport you on a powerful journey through the incredibly fertile world of musical creation in France from the end of the 19th century to the beginning of the 20th century.
4 performances:
Friday 23rd July at 7:00pm
Saturday 24th July at 2.00pm & 7:00pm
Sunday 25th July at 5:00pm
RITE OF SPRING
Witness Igor Stravinsky’s infamous & iconoclastic ballet The Rite of Spring – one of the most influential performance masterpieces of the twentieth century. Stravinsky‘s avant garde score and Nijinsky’s sacrilegious choreography caused outrage at the Paris premier in 1913. It was the beginning of the modern era, and one of the most famous nights in art’s history.

Join Byron Ballet as they make a tribute to these masters with an original family friendly production that will take you on an unforgettable journey of suspense and sensual beauty.
Direction/choreography by Yvonne Hall. Extra male choreography by Robert Kelly.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
CARMEN (excerpt)
Byron Ballet presents the passionate love duet from this famous story of love and betrayal.

Don José is hopelessly smitten by the free-spirited and beautiful Carmen, but when she betrays him for a dashing toreador, his ardour turns to jealous rage.
Set to the backdrop of George Bizet’s famous hypnotic musical score.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
MATISSE LA DANSE
An original creation based on Matisse’s famous painting ‘La Danse’ from 1910, and some of his other masterpieces.

“Actually, I live more in Dance: expressive movements, rhythmics, music I like”, said Matisse as a sort of explanation (justification) at the end of his long life. “It was inside me, this dance.”
Matisse witnessed Isadora Duncan dancing (one of the founders of modern dance) and if, indeed, she was a large source of inspiration for his dance, it was also a visit in the south of France, where he witnessed and was fascinated by fishermen dancing their traditional ring that inspired the circle of dancers.
Directed and conceived by Vianney Pinion
Soprano – April Galett, Cello – Ian Knowles, Piano -Ken Naughton.
Music – De Falla, Saint-Saens, Debussy and Lekeu.

BANGALOW FLEA MARKET
2021-06-12 08:00 - 14:00
The Bangalow Flea Markets are the newest markets to arrive in the Northern Rivers area. Founded by a local Bangalow family, these markets aim to offer a collection of stalls from established businesses, regular market vendors and locals wanting to sell their pre-loved items – garage sale style. By creating a community market that supports small businesses and families from surrounding areas, we’re hoping to create a new buzzing environment where there’s something for everyone.
Our Flea Markets run on the second Saturday of every month from 8am – 2pm at Bangalow Public School. Stallholders sell new and retro clothing, furniture, self-care items and services, and plus unique bits and pieces. Whatever you may find, it’s a fun day out to hunt for bargains, hang out with family or catch up with some friends.
