Overview
Contemporary art fans are in for a treat this March. Sydney Art Month is returning for another year with a stellar line-up of talks, tours, and exhibitions across the city. The fun doesn't end when the sun goes down — quite the opposite, actually. Art at Night gives you after-dark access to the city's premier galleries and creative spaces for free, followed by some epic after-parties. So, clear your calendar, grab your mates, download an Art Month precinct map, and get ready for some artsy adventuring.
The Art at Night program takes over three precincts throughout Sydney for one night only. It kicks off in Redfern and Chippendale on March 1, then it moves on to East Sydney on March 8 and finishes up in Paddington and Woollahra on March 15.
In Paddington and Woollahra, one of the city's original art precincts, you can expect massive sculptures from Sri Lankan-born, Sydney-based artist Ramesh Mario Nithiyendran. These explicitly political works explore issues of gender, religion, and sex in a unique and enticing format. As well, look out for artist Rosie Deacon — she'll be constructing a large, site-specific work that plays with kitsch, colour and spectacle of obsession. Galleries on the trail include COMA, Sabia Gallery, and Wagner Contemporary. End the night with music and drinks at the Cake Wines after-party (that takes place at the Paddington Uniting Church).
The Art at Night Paddington/Woollahra trail will run from 6-8pm, followed by the Cake Wines Art Bar at the UNSW Art + Design Building on Greens Rd, Paddington, from 7.30-10.30pm.
