You know what? There’s way too much great stuff in Art Month to list here. Check out the schedule. Over 70 galleries are participating, and there are over 140 events – most of them free. If you can’t find something that grabs your interest, you truly are a jaded douchebag.
Might we suggest:
1) Artist displays at Fairfax and Roberts (Michael Zavros), The Commons (Lyn and Tony, 24-28 March) and both Incu stores (Tara Marynowsky, Paddington; Kate Rohde, CBD).
2) The Art Month blog featuring emerging art writers
3) Wilderness group show at AGNSW
4) Art Bars! Two words that go so well together…
5) Brett Whiteley Studio Talk
6) Gemma Smith at Sarah Cottier Gallery
7) Saturday shuttle buses (everyone loves a free ride)
David Griggs and Adam Cullen at Kaliman
9) Getting inside the old Carlton Brewery in Fraserstudios Open Studio Day!
Sydney doesn’t have a centralised ‘arts district’. This has benefits (more variety, less homogeneity) and drawbacks (less community, and low profile). We see Art Month combating the bad without negating the good. This, is good.
