SUMMARY:Gotcha! Concrete Prints from the McEwans Celebrity Pavement
DESCRIPTION:Who remembers the McEwans celebrity pavement? \nBetween 1972 and 1994\, scores of celebrities had their hand- and footprints immortalised in cement at the entrance of the McEwans hardware store in Bourke Street. Shopping for a hammer or a hair-dryer\, you’d step in the prints of actors\, musicians\, sportspeople\, writers\, dancers\, politicians\, an astronaut\, a racehorse – even an operatic dog. \nCurated by Robyn Annear\, ‘Gotcha!’ presents 40 of the surviving prints from the McEwans pavement\, together with stories of the celebrities who made them and newspaper images that capture the mood of the times. \nNote: enter City Gallery via Customer Relations\nMonday to Friday: 9am to 5pm

SUMMARY:Book Launch : The Architecture of Iwan Iwanoff
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER VIA EVENTBRITE FOR CATERING PURPOSES \n— \nHosted by ACAHUCH with Stuart Harrison\, please join us to hear author Warren Andersen and former collaborator for the New Horizons exhibition to discuss his recently released book ‘The Architecture of Iwan Iwanoff’ in the Japanese Room at Melbourne School of Design. \nThere will be copies available to purchase on the night\, and pre-order is available. \n— \nTHE ARCHITECTURE OF IWAN IWANOFF book is a comprehensive review of houses\, commercial buildings\, apartments\, and shop fitouts from 1950 to 1986. \nIwanoff unified international modernism\, Besser block relief\, and innovation with material use and construction to create a unique aesthetic putting Perth\, Western Australia onto the global architecture map. Including historical photography\, drawings\, furniture\, lost structures\, and unbuilt projects\, this book provides a new perspective and authoritative resource. \nUnderpinned by five years of research in university archives in Australia\, Germany\, and Bulgaria\, it examines Iwanoff’s legacy through recollections f his sons\, Michael and Nicolai Iwanoff\, professional architects\, artists\, contractors\, and house owners. \n‘One of the most exciting things was documenting all of the houses\, some of which have never been open to the public. So you can look at bespoke woodwork\, furniture and cabinets which are part of the whole package\, not just the exteriors – Warren Andersen.’ \nThis book takes the reader on a fresh journey through three decades of Iwanoff’s design innovation and influences from California moderne\, geometric besser block\, to Italian sculptural abstraction with a feast of biographical details and archive imagery. \n— \nStuart Harrison is an Australian architect\, good design advocate\, recently appointed senior lecturer in Architectural Design at the Faculty of Architecture\, Building and Planning\,. He is a specialist in the re-use of buildings and believes in a strong link between history and contemporary practice. He has worked across architectural practice\, teaching and media during the last 20 years. Stuart is director of Harrison and White (HAW)\, has worked in public radio\, television\, academia and has authored three books on housing. He hosted Seasons 2 and 3 of Restoration Australia on ABC-TV. \nWarren Andersen is an urban planning and business management consultant with over 40 years experience in public and private sector. As a heritage advocate\, he initiated the national listing and restoration of the 1906 WA Rowing Club building\, and listing of Timber Town of Jarrahdale. In 2021\, he secured inclusion into the municipal inventory of the City of Fremantle of the 1968 Martin Clark recording studio building designed by Iwan Iwanoff.
