Geniale Dilletanten

Overview

In 1980s Berlin, a boundary-breaking group of amateurs, known as the Geniale Dilletanten — or Brilliant Dilletantes — plunged into art-making, without much concern for rules, tradition or The Establishment. Whether painting, sculpting, designing, filmmaking or playing music, the members fearlessly developed their own voices, expressing unique interpretations of the world.

For one month, from March 10 till April 13, their creations are making Sydney's aMBUSH Gallery, Central Park. Expect films, photographs, magazines, posters, audio and video. Pop along on opening night — Thursday, March 10 from 6-9pm — to catch an exclusive performance by Gudrun Gut, a Berlin-based electronic music artist and original Geniale Dilletante. Check out the other scheduled events on aMBUSH's website.
