Regan Tamanui

In October 2000, Regan Tamanui, a jazz, ska and skank fan, discovered the London Stuckist group whilst surfing the internet.

[3] Besides Tamanui, the other initial members of the Melbourne group were Justin Grub, Ben Blanchette, Malcome Mmackie and Dave Freeman Rose.

A subsequent line-up was Basil Kouvelis, Justin Grubb, Ben Frost, Nigel Stein, Daniel Gorzadek, Stephen Sperling and Dennis Roper.

The film is structured around the artists reading lines from the Stuckists Manifesto written by Charles Thomson and Billy Childish.

He has made a successful transition to the commercial gallery arena, with art collectors increasingly interested in his street inspired stencilling.

[2] Since 2001 he has exhibited his work in both a solo and group capacity in Hobart, Melbourne, Adelaide, Sydney, New Zealand, United States and London.

"[2] Four years later, in April 2005 The Age ran a reprise of Stuckism and observed: The Stuckists are a radical pro-painting group and are anti-conceptual art.
