Whether this merits its own thread, I will leave to @Paclo

But should it be deemed such.

Its the renovation/redevelopment of the Band Gallery, located at 19 Brock

There's a project page here: https://www.bandgallery.com/19-brock-renovations

^Of course. This had been stalled for a while but is back in action. This section of Brock is fascinating for me as it’s a great example of the ‘thickening’ that Micallef/Bozikovic have highlighted.

Love it. Nice charred timber.

Cool building, but a gallery for artists with only a certain skin colour is....if only there was a word for it...

Reverse racism is still not real. Black artists having a space of their own outside of the mainstream art world which is heavily biased against them is not the same as having a whites only gallery, that only makes sense if you ignore all of history and social analysis.
