When I first met Will Harden (at the Cricketers no doubt) I was first struck by his uncanny resemblence to a certain ex-Nirvana drummer turned Triple M favourite. “Has anyone ever told you that you look heaps like Dave Grohl?” I inquired, to which Will laughed in a manner that suggested he’d heard this one before and replied “Ummm, yeah. I guess that’s why everyone calls me Grohl”. So yeah, anyway, Will Harden – or Grohl as he is known in the postcodes of 2010/2011 – not only looks like a celebrity but is a pretty spectacular artist to boot. Described by himself as “transmogulated” (NB: it is literally impossible to find a definition of this word), Grohl’s paintings are florid, transcendental affairs that have been known to convey a sense of eroticism to many (but, much like clouds, you can really choose to see what you want in them). Take what you will then when Grohl presents Internal Workout Volume IX; his much-anticipated debut show as a resident at Black and Blue. Internal Workout opens at Black and Blue Gallery on May 15th from 6pm-10pm and can be viewed until June 1 from Thurs-Sun, 11am-6pm.
