  My 60s Explosion 
  a personal view 
  by 
  Roger Foley-Fogg also known as Ellis D Fogg
  
  Albie Thoms, David Perry, Gary Shead, Ubu, Oz Magazine, Richard Neville, Richard Walsh, Martin Sharp, Mick Glasheen, John Allen, The Arts Factory,  The Human Body, Rex Cramphorn’s Performance Syndicate, Willy Young now William Yang,  Sydney University Underground Society, Victor Kay, Watters Gallery, Mike Brown and Vivienne Binns, and many other young people were all ‘happening’ in Australia during the 60s and the best of them were included in my evolving Elli D Fogg Lightshows and Lumino Kinetic work .
  
  Like many others such as Albie Thoms, my work as an artist rebelled against the usual model of exhibitions of paintings and other work on white walled Galleries, we considered this to be boring and wanted a total multi disciplinary art theatre. Frank Watters chaged this in 1971 when I was asked to create a total environment “WOOM” with Vivienne Binns in his Gallery and was subsequently invited by Albie Thoms to create a room at The yellow House. The Capsule Room.
  
  The press covered all this experimentation extensively and it became very popular and hip which encouraged many others to produce one off lightworks and theatre pieces with varying degrees of success. In my particular area of Light Sculpture, Environments and Lightshows, Albie Thom’s Ubu group were the only other innovators that consistently came up with new ideas and productions. To finance these developments both Ubu and Fogg offered our art to commercial businesses as long as we were still in control of our work and retained artistic integrity.
  
  Our concerns as young people included: The Vietnam war, censorship, sexual liberation, state political and police corruption, the white Australia policy, republicanism, apartheid, the voting rights and civil rights marches in the USA and the treatment of our own black people. women’s liberation, the pill and contraception, abortion, sexual repression and the general repression, malaise and boredom of society. I worked at making my Lightshows reflect these concerns in a manner that was entertaining. 
  
  Our disrespect for authority figures and encouragement to think for ourselves came not only from Albie Thom’s obscenity trial, the trials of the Oz, nor from Timothy Leary’s writings but also from the fact that Nazi war criminals were denied the defence ‘only following orders’. The 1961 Eichmann trial was a reminder that you have a responsibilty to think for yourself and to not blindly follow authority. 
  
  I  had been brought up by strong and artistic women, my mother Hazel Foley and my Aunt Eileen Foley, a musician, who had encourage my interest in art. I had wanted to be a sculptor since I was 12, and had played with anomalous light and colour and imagined that I would work in theatre, perhaps making sculpture that could be used on stage. When I left school in 1959 my Aunt advised that the coming big thing would be guitars and lights and my mother advised I should learn something that could support me financially so I worked in a factory learning to use hand and machine tools during the day, went to University and then Art School at night and worked in the Lighting departments of various theatres in my spare time. 
  
  I was aware of the influence of Ghandi’s India and the colourful Hindi Gods on the counter culture movement then sweeping the Western world - young folk particularly liked the fact that multinationals such as Coca Cola were banned in India. I was also inspired by New York’s The Living Theatre - still performing in 2012, Albie Thom’s Theatre of Cruelty at Sydney University and the American West Coast Hippy movement which became Flower Power, the contrasting Andy Warhol Exploding Plastic Inevitable with Lou Reed and The Velvet Underground on the East Coast. And the power of Rock and Roll music and its message which I added to my theatre shows, first at a small hall in Kensington for The Psychedelic Party, Mixed Media and Banana Freakout show with Brian Robson’s band and then later at The UNSW Roundhouse with Tully where we had a full house with a thousand people who could not get in to the show watching through the glass walls. 
  
  I continued to make Light sculptures, first maquettes and then larger versions to use on stage. I devised designed and directed and produced the Lightshows utilising the best artists I could find. Ubu films, Victor Kay’s curved screens and handmade 35mm films, Aggy Read’s hand painted slides, Eddie Van Der Madden’s Wetshows and beautiful handmade Kaleidoscope projectors, Geoffrey Rose’s painted scenery, Alex Boyd’s stroboscopes, Vivienne Binn’s paintings, Christine Koltai’s dance, with some very impressive bands and musicians including Tully, The Nutwood Rug, Company Caine, Heart and Soul, The Turkish Green Electric band, Jeff St John, Wendy Saddington and the great Jean Lewis. This work led to later productions with Jazz men such as John Sangster and with composer Peter Sculthorpe and the Sydney and Melbourne Symphony Orchestras.
  
  My shows are always sexy and pushed the boundaries because conservative attitudes to censorship and sexuality have never gone away. Beautiful girls were always coming up to me at concerts wanting to take their clothes off and dance around the band as living screens for our projections. I always said yes. Then late in 1969 I met Gretel Pinniger a beautiful arts student who earned money as an artists model, by making leather clothes and by working the strip club circuit at Kings Cross as Madam Lash. We struck up a friendship and determined to put her handmade costumes and her friends in our Lightshows which we did at the beginning of the following decade. So that is another story.
  
  I acknowledge the archives of Albie Thoms for assistance with this memoir.

farewell to - the last indeterminate and ephemeral fogg sculpture Photography by Jim Anderson and Wendy Shaw
I called this performance rather grandly: "The Last Ephemeral and Indeterminate Fogg Sculpture" - Fogg sculpture is an attempt to illustrate my belief that there is no such thing as objective reality...everything is subjective. You see what you want to see. Or not. Then there is consensual reality- the everyday. The song is Tiny Tim singing The Icecaps are Melting.
A great impromptu performance by Christa Hughes a wonderful and generous artistic spirit... Note in the background Louise Ferrier the great beauty of London Oz and with her shopping bags 70s performance artist Gretel Pinniger, also in the audience Jim Anderson and other 60s luminaries
