Art and Culture Week
Sydney has been having it's 17th biennale of art, these last couple of months.-
Louise and I went on Tuesday to Cockatoo Island,
which housed the main video installation and sculpture display. It was a fun day out.. although the art was somewhat strange.
I really enjoyed Cockatoo Island -- it's very industrial and edgy with cool underground tunnels used as bomb shelters in the war, and grim convict cells used for solitary confinement. - The historical side of the island really needs it's own excursion, so that will be another day - for now - here is some of what we saw:
exploding cars,
Replica Hubble telescopes:
and strange green colender mobiles.
Cool underground tunnels
and ancient cranes
( not sure if the flag is "art" or not?).
We came home on the ferry via Pier 2 and walked around under the bridge..
