March 14th, 2012: The Tate presents its inaugural opening show, a group exhibition of mixed works by artists and friends of curators, Marty Routledge & Christopher Loutfy. There Goes The Neighbourhood is an invitation to the creative community to take back ownership of the once-bohemian inner west suburb of Glebe.

The carefully considered selection of works in the show champions the variety of practices of the star line-up of Sydney-based contemporary fine artists.

From the street notoriety of internationally recognised artists, Numskull and Beastman, to the incredibly advanced galactic space monsters of 6-year old, Max Treffkorn, There Goes The Neighbourhood is an opportunity to christen the new gallery with an exciting collection of upcoming and established Sydney artists. Other work includes Robin Hearfield’s portrait photography of Glebe’s housing commission children, juxtaposed with the typographic delights of Luca Ionescu and Toko Design Studio. Also adding to the mix are Sydney curators and practicing artists, Joseph Allen Shea, Damian Aisotrope, Marty Routledge, Kyle Montgomery and Chris Loutfy.

‘There Goes The Neighbourhood’ Group Exhibition at The Tate (upstairs at the Toxteth).
Opening reception: Wednesday March 14th, 6-9pm.
Exhibition is open for four days only, Wednesday March 14th - Sunday March 19th, 2012
