Incinerator Arts Complex

I’ve recently found a new arts venue: Incinerator Arts Complex, in Moonee Ponds Melbourne. It’s an interesting building, built in 1929 as a collaboration between architect Walter Burley Griffin & engineer John Boadle.

They have an upcoming exhibition which I look forward to. “aRtECYCLE is an exhibition of indoor and outdoor temporary sculptural artworks specially created in response to the building and grounds of the Walter Burley Griffin designed Incinerator Arts Complex.

Inspired by the extraordinary architectural, philosophical and spiritual influences of Sir Walter Burley Griffin and his collaborator Marion Mahony Griffin, as well as the venue’s historical significance as an active incinerator that used the reverberatory system of waste disposal, all aRtECYCLE artworks are made of, or inspired by, recycled materials, salvaged waste, junk, flotsam and jetsam, debris, or saved, found, retrieved and reclaimed objects.”
