If you haven't already been, this is a great time to visit the
Chau Chak Wing Museum. It's free to visit and has a wnnderful permanent collection of antiquities from Ancient Eygpt, Ancient Greece and the Roman era. There is also art and photography from modern times and even a lego display!
The Biennale exhibtion is displayed on three floors, and really moving. The Biennale of Sydney runs until June 14 and is showcased around the city, with the main building being the
fabulous White Bay Power Station.
I think this year's selection is very moving and accessible to the non art educated. I found it really got me thinking about things, as well as often looking very fun and pleasing but with a sinister meaning. Making the invisible visible seems to be the thread linking a lot of the works this year.
These were clever but they don't really work in the photos. Before going to the exhibition, I took this photo while walking form the car. It's funny how the human mind works. We are never quite as unique as we think....

this sounds and looks fascinating, good to see different shapes and textures. Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful museum that must be. I find ancient civilisations fascinating - Lego too!
ReplyDeleteIt's great. And free! Also great. Until recently it had mummies on display but in keeping with the guidelines out of Egypt, now they don't show those, but still the sarcophogeus's (?) and other antiquities from that time....
DeleteVery interesting again dear Lydia...but too far away for me for a visit. But it´s always good to read and hear what´s going on on your side of the globe.
ReplyDeleteHave a good time and all the best
