ARTBAR Curated by Eric Bridgeman

Overview

The Museum of Contemporary Art's monthly ARTBAR has become a firm fixture on Sydney's after-dark cultural calendar. Featuring a new curator each time, ARTBAR combines art, music, design and performance on the last Friday of every month. After knocking off work, head down to Circular Quay for a big dose of art, a splash of wine and your choice of fun-filled activities — with the added bonus of panoramic views of the harbour from the Sculpture Terrace.

This month, the MCA is buddying up with photographer, videographer, performance and installation artist Eric Bridgeman for Yal Kuna (My Mates) = Blessed, a night about friends and relationships. Bridgeman hails from Brisbane, and creates art about his friends and family exploring major themes such as identity, social performance and cultural taboos. His art will be on display in the form of paintings, GIFs and 1930s crooner songs for you and your mates.

Bring some friends with you for an evening of great art — and don't forget to drag them into the styling booth for some fashion tips on the way out.
