Biennale of Sydney Review


The Biennale

Deep in the heart of Sydney is a vibrant beat that pulses through the exhibition of Modern Art, commonly known the Biennale. This year, Cockatoo Island, among other locations, hosts the 18th Biennale of Sydney and this free event is a spectacle not to be missed. Running from the 27th of June, through to the 16th of September, this exhibition showcases art installations of an international standard, with many an installation being a stimulus for your personal thoughtplay. It includes strange and superb interactive pieces, with many of them causing your to pause, for a moment and take off the glasses you commonly wear, to view the world in a different way.

Imagine walking into an old warehouse to see an orange curtain billowing in the wind. Although you admit the gracefulness of this ephemeral movement is quite magical in itself, you become surprised to learn that this silk was hand-woven, and this fabric was indeed dyed in Fanta.
