On this day, 20 years ago Nicky Winmar famously lifted his uniform, whilst being pelted with racial taunts from some unforgiving football fans and said “I’m black and I’m proud to be black!”.
This moment famously captured by photographer Wayne Ludbey, Winmar’s heroic gesture and legacy of taking a stand against racism, is being honoured in an exhibition opening today by he National Sports Museum. The show reflects on the impact of Winmar’s protest with a new display, Black and Proud: A stand against racism.
Despite TV cameras missing this important moment, Wayne Ludbey and John Feder captured this historic moment. Never to be forgotten.
Things come apart
Toronto-based photographer todd mclellan, explores retro to modern daily items that have, are, or will be in our everyday lives. displayed within the exhibition, every piece of various household items - a phone, lawnmower and typewriter - are meticulously taken apart, and arranged in an organized composition. in another take on a childhood fantasy, mclellan photographs the disassembled pieces as he ejects them into mid-air, allowing pieces to rain down in an explosion-like fashion - offering a commentary on obsolete technologies from the past.
