About Wild Brumby Art Gallery, Albert Square
First things first - the beginning
Wild Brumby Art Gallery crawled out of the gutters of St Kilda way back when around 2010-2011 appearing in a sprawling cracked and falling down house near the Caulfield race track.
Created by Andy J Crowder with ‘Dirty Kurty’ LINTNER. Two artists and musicians cut from the same cloth feverishly working away at art each day and all night long. All was well in the world of art…each day lived for the art one would make today, tomorrow be gone.
After the Caulfield location headed for demoslihment and Johny Dancer cut down Dirty Kurty. Andy's art went on the road for awhile, landing in Melton.
Until now we've made art whenever, however and wherever we could, now the outsiders have arrived! In a shiny new posh location ooooh we do say!
About our artists
December artist in residence & opening artist Andy J Crowder
My art is something that evolved out of graffiti and comics, into band posters, and always painting… I have moved into the realm of what I call ‘existential symbolism’ along with some realism plucked from life, from what I see, where I go …
I also do Sculptures carved from wood, and recycled materials…art has a healing and visionary effect on me …
Artist and musician Laura Trapnell
Introducing Pocket Full of Rye Laura
Paint on my fingers, it flows through my veins,
I paint so to stop from going insane,
A creature emerges, sinful or true?
A woman appears, but is still and quite blue
There's something not right with the child underneath
There's a deer with sharp blood soaked jagged teeth
A beautiful lily, it sprouts from her skin
As I silence the screaming and laughter within
I also paint pets, or a rose for your mum
To silent the chatter, I paint for the fun
Pocket Full of Rye Laura will be exhibiting works in our opening exhibition. We are excited to show you more…

Laura performs in the band Wintersun with Angela Howard, Rob Wellington and Peter Cave.
Artist and musician Boris Falovic
Boris Falovic (the painter Boro Couw) applies a process known as ‘prainting’ to create textural, multi dimensional works of art.
”I play when I paint and I paint when I play ...”
Boris is currently prainting, performing with Melbourne bands; Little Gem and Noise Induced Hearing Loss (NIHL) and working on an Ian Rilen retrospective with Henry Hugo.
