Museum of Old and New Art

David said, ‘When I asked Balint Zsako to do some paintings for the even more limited edition of my limited edition book, he chose hands as the subject of his handiwork. Given his history, I thought he’d choose dicks and cunts (in fact, that’s why I asked him to do it), and I was initially a little bit disappointed. “Damn you, Balint,” I thought, “sex is the great universal, and a major driver of this museum.” Then I thought about reading the book, and I realised that it’d be tricky for a dick to turn a page, and it’d be well-nigh impossible for a cunt. “To turn a page you need hands,” I thought, and Balint was redeemed.’ Anyway, we own a whole heap of @balintzsako ’s work, so we’re doing an exhibition. It’s opening today, in the Round House.

Take the plunge. Dark Mofo, 11–22 June. Program out now, tickets on sale Wednesday 1 April.

Before the museum, there was Moorilla. The first vines (and some of the first in Tasmania) were planted on site by Italian émigré and Moorilla founder Claudio Alcorso, in 1958. Four years later, the first proper vintage; and now, the 64th. That's something worth celebrating. Party at ours this Sunday, with tasting flights, Italian-inspired food, live music and a special cellar release of Moorilla's 2012 wines. Free entry to the lawns, details in bio.

‘I bought Moorilla on a whim, but that whim has come to define me ...’ Mona is, among other things, a watering hole for David and his buddies. He said you could have a drink as well. @moorillawinery , purveyor of said drinks at the Mona site since 1958.
