Unplugged Live: Portrait of an Artist
Join some of the country's best musicians for a weekly wrap sesh on art, songwriting and culture hosted by Jae Laffer of The Panics.
Overview
The National Gallery of Victoria are hitting all the right notes this month with the introduction of their musical programs. Last week the much-loved Friday Nights series kicked off for another year, now there's this: a series of thoughtful discussions examining the boundaries of art with some of the country's top musicians.
Led by Jae Laffer of The Panics, these weekly laid back wrap sessions will see the likes of Bob Evans, Adalita and Paul Dempsey tackle the themes and meanings of art in the NGV Australia collection as well as some related songs. "I want to show that a great song and a great painting are equal and come from a similar place in the heart of an artist," Laffer says.
With all sessions being followed by an intimate live performance, this a great chance to see some amazing Aussie talent on the cheap. And by cheap, we mean entirely free.
Unplugged Live: Portrait of an Artist will be held on Level 2 at The Ian Potter Centre: NGV Australia. Check out the full program here.
