no standing only dancing...

finally went and had a look at the Rennie Ellis exhibition at NGV.
i had seen a bit of his work published in vice magazine last year and from what i saw, i really liked. and i heard good things about the show...

i thought it was great seeing how the australian way of life was back in the 70's and 80's...and the diversity of people...from celebs to junkies on the streets of melbourne.
and his work documented this so well...

the types of people he was able to firstly find and then take portraits of was amazing...
