The Chaser Report Live and Arty

The Chaser Report podcast is recording an episode live in the middle of TAP gallery on Friday 17th November, 2023 at 7pm.

This very arty and exclusive event is to celebrate a photo art exhibition of the work of British photographer Jennifer Forward-Hayter, which included capturing the behind-the-scenes magic and mystery of The Chaser’s creative process during a two-month period last year.

The podcast will be recorded live, and will feature Charles Firth, Craig Reucassel, Gabbi Bolt and Mark Humphries as well as appearances from the Chaser Interns, who actually do all the work.

Together, they will talk about their own interactions with art, and more importantly, discuss how to scam yourself an arts grant through low-level fraud.

Tickets are $30.
Get them here (ticketek).

The recording will last roughly one hour, followed by drinks. Drinks courtesy of Young Henry’s.

Trevor Reeves Bio

I arrived in Sydney in 1972 from the UK and almost never stopped moving since.

Sydney, Brisbane, Western Australia, Cairns, Brisbane, Nairobi (Kenya), Sydney. Also trips to SE Asia, the USA, Mexico, Africa and Central America.

My photography began with childhood images of family and trains in the UK. Middle age and an IT career consisted of family snapshots. Then newly single-again photos of my cycling trip from Lisbon to Calais in my 50s. I used my first digital camera which fit snugly into my handlebar bag.

Fast forward: I decided, in early 2022, that I wanted to improve my photography. I read a lot about photography and practiced more.

I discovered Surry Hills in 2023 and the exhibited images are the result of 5-6 walks I took through this suburb.

A Quick History of the Movies

A QUICK HISTORY OF THE MOVIES with Barry Patterson Wednesday 30th November 7.30pm

A Quick History of the Movies * film at Tap

a quick history of the movies

It’s hard to imagine a city the size of Sydney without a Cinematheque. Vast numbers of movies that viewers in other centers take for granted never surface here. This isolation shows up in a whole lot of different ways.

Well, movies are back at the Tap Gallery in Surry Hills.

“Bronco Billy” Anderson shares the screen with European art movies, Hollywood nostalgia and the Kung Fu spectaculars. From flickering shop-front to picture places and complexes, through the arrival of sound, colour and big screens, filmmaker and life-long enthusiast Barrie Patterson who has mounted programs for the London National Film Theatre and Paris Cinémathèque is doing a one-off event which traces film making from the first days to the present. considers the way film & TV have become central to experience.

New comers will get an insight into the problems of handling and watching material in a way that does justice to the intention of the original makers. The program will use genuine celluloid film, some of it a hundred years old, in illustration and comparisons.

Here’s a unique chance to rub shoulders with people who take their movies seriously and a few who know that they can be one of the most fun ways to spend their time.

You wouldn’t want to miss that!

This one-off presentation may challenge your view of our most popular form of entertainment.
Don’t miss it!
Don’t even be late!

TAP Gallery, 259 Riley St. Surry Hills NSW 2010.
