Re-construction brings together artists- one community group and two curators to reread the legacy of Jack Mundey and the Green Bans. Jack Mundey's whole life was one giant spatial project. But he didn't need art to do what he did- he had the context of the union movement. Discussing Jack Mundey's concept of green bans and public space as a 'spatial project' in an art context- is implying a common link between the union movement and art- which makes us aware of the way both offer room for alternative thinking or challenges to mainstream thinking.Sydney's Green Bans were the world's first urban uprising over planning- heritage and housing justice. In 1971- an alliance of builders' labourers and musicians- wharfies and artists- pensioners and the suburban middle class made history. Mundey secretary of the Builders' Labourers' Federation- led his comrades to the environmental barricades in June 1971 alongside a united group of 'middle-class women' from Hunters Hill who fought to save a remnant of Sydney Harbour bush. This was the first of a series of important intersectional alliances with communities. It became a new political model. At the time Mundey was a non-doctrinaire communist who later joined the Greens party.Re-construction re-enacts and re-animates texts and slogans from the unofficial archives that record sit-ins or peace marches for civil rights- gay and lesbian or women's rights and environment movements. In this case a portion of Jack Mundey's papers donated to the Trades Hall Collection are reviewed at Sydney Trades Hall.Green Bans embraced other heritage suburbs- most of them working class and many involving saving low-cost or public housing but the Builders' Labourers' Federation fought targeted battles for the rights of women- Aboriginals and gays. The establishment Sydney Morning Herald was quick to call them 'mere builders' labourers' and 'proletarian town planners'- just conservationists were called 'mere housewives'. From Kellys Bush onwards- the green ban era was just 4 years until the de-registration of the NSW Builders Labours' Federation. The additional year dedicates 1975 to their legacy: the renewal of Woolloomoolloo Public Housing- proudly declared a 'world leader' for its architecture and consultation model.COVID-19 Safety Plan - Museums and galleriesWe follow NSW Health Guidelines.

Take your yoga equipment to the next level by shopping with our quick and stunning Indigenous design mats. We support Aboriginal artists in getting their designs out there and seen in day to day life. Jarin Street began by recognising the misuse of Aboriginal art and the industry's failure to protect the artists and Aboriginal designs- as well as a failure to highlight the artists themselves. It was also born out of wanting to create a pathway for all people to connect to Aboriginal artists and story through wellbeing in a way that was respectful and appropriately honours Aboriginal culture. We aim to provide ongoing ethical and sustainable support to the artists who contribute their work on your yoga mats and soon to come - ACTIVE WEAR. We encourage people of all walks of life to support Aboriginal artists and businesses through Jarin Street designs and products.
