InReviewAu

InReview is a distinctive non-profit initiative aimed at supporting arts journalism in Australia, especially in regions where this vital practice is at risk. Originally founded in South Australia, the project has since extended its reach to Queensland, emphasizing the importance of local arts and culture journalism and reviews. The inception of InReview was driven by our concern for the diminishing state of local journalism, particularly in specialized fields like arts reviewing, which face significant challenges. We believe that thorough and professional reviews play an essential role in cultural development, empowering artists and arts organizations to excel. Every week, InReview publishes accessible reviews and articles at no cost, benefiting the arts community, audiences, and the wider public by covering a diverse range of arts and cultural practices.

Umberto Clerici puts down the baton ... to take up his cello

Nov 5, 2024 | inreview.com.au | PHIL BROWN |Stephen Vagg |Shannon Pearce

It’s not easy conducting from behind a cello. Which is why Umberto Clerici doesn’t really do it. As an acclaimed cellist, Queensland Symphony Orchestra’s chief conductor still performs in Australia and overseas but not usually in Queensland, aside from the odd star turn at the Australian Festival of Chamber Music in Townsville.
Genre defying, boundary bashing ... try 14 seconds with Phluxus2

It's true blue, it's dinky-di - it's our history told in our lingo

Nov 3, 2024 | inreview.com.au | PHIL BROWN |Jo Case |John Miles |Jane Ring Frank

Fair go and don’t come the raw prawn – telling the story of Australia using Aussie lingo seems dinkum to me. And there I have managed to use several references already. Australia in 100 Words by Amanda Laugensen is a brilliant idea. The author asked herself: what words would you select to tell the story of Australia?
For art's sake! Take a walk through history at Queen's Wharf

Nov 3, 2024 | inreview.com.au | PHIL BROWN |Genevieve Meegan

Forget about the naysayers because Queen’s Wharf will be the making of modern Brisbane. The precinct is ultra-modern but also includes some of the city’s historic highlights and an amazing array of new public art. You could wander around and find all that yourself, but why not take a tour? Museum of Brisbane (MoB) has teamed up with The Star Brisbane and Queen’s Wharf Brisbane to launch curated walking tours through the precinct from November 11.
Wickety Wak brings mayhem back!

Nov 3, 2024 | inreview.com.au | PHIL BROWN |Stephen Vagg |Shannon Pearce

Next year is the 50th birthday of one of our most iconic music acts. No, not Air Supply, Boney M or The Boomtown Rats – or the Sex Pistols, Talking Heads or Little River Band, although they all also formed in 1975. I’m talking about a band that was bigger than any of them – north of the Tweed, anyway. Wickety Wak.

2025 Adelaide Festival promises a whole lotta love

Nov 3, 2024 | inreview.com.au | Suzie Keen |Jane Llewellyn |Graham Strahle |Katherine Arguile

Brett Sheehy had to hit the ground sprinting when returning to the helm of the Adelaide Festival, with the 2025 program sent to the printers less than two months after he started as artistic director. Sheehy, who was AD of the event from 2005-08, was brought back to finalise and oversee the delivery of next year’s Festival after his predecessor Ruth Mackenzie left in early August to take up a new role within the Department of the Premier and Cabinet.
