Here’s a selection of pictures from the HUGE opening night of the No Standing Only Dancing: Photographs by Rennie Ellis exhibition at the NGV in Melbourne. The night was a huge success with up to 400 people keen to share the positive vibe. I over heard comments such as “I could have been anyone of those people (in the photos)”, such was the positive connection that punters had with Rennie’s images. Others said “it’s been so long since I came out of an exhibition feeling happy and so full of hope!”. The exhibition has been expertly curated by Susan van Wyk - the Kings Cross room is a stand out! You can see the exhibition at the Ian Potter Centre in Federation Square  until 22 Feb 2009. The NGV has produced a book of the same name in conjunction with the exhibition, with essays by Susan and George Negus, it’s a must have. If you want to go a step further you can purchase a unique collectors item. The Rennie Ellis Photo Archive has commissioned a limited edition print run of 100 books, specially bound in linen with slip case, containing an original black and white print Dino Ferrari, Toorak Road 1976. Buy one now before the edition runs out.
