Grenda's Bus Depot Intervention
In March 2008 seven artists were given seven days of unrestricted access to Dandenong's historic Grenda's bus depot prior to its demolition.
Artists
.....Here at the old Grendas bus depot in Dandenong a group of seven artists are making work from something that isn’t easy to describe. Ostensibly their subject is a series of buildings, a bus depot vacated just a week ago: bricks, grease, old lockers, asphalt and the veneer clad boardroom.

I've just seen the ABC doco, which unfortunately did/could not give enough coverage to the final results, it still managed though to bring to my attention a really fantastic project. I can only throw heaps of praise and admiration at all of you. As a "site-specific" artsist and curator of a number of projects in locations of historic interest in Sydney (Elizabeth Bay House, the Royal Botanic Gardens and the Australian Museum), I just have to say that you've all captured the very essence of what site-specific/responsive work is all about. To your credit, you've also fired the imaginatons of the workers who toiled there, and most importantly treated their workplace with a great deal of respect - even though the interventions were so radical. Thank you... it made my Sunday.
