AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'"Urban Display Suite" is a deliciously malicious musical satire on our national obsession with the property market. With Melbourne houses the most overvalued in the world, our city is awash with tandoori tanned real estate agents, tasteless architecture and boring auction anecdotes. As you step into this display suite, the grotesque greed and narcissism of Australian life is on display for public viewing. Source: www.fortyfivedownstairs.com/ (Sighted 13/04/2011).
