Overview
Sydney is about to get a brand new arts and cultural hub led by people with disabilities. Meet Front Up.
Setting up in Seven Hills and run by not-for-profit Ability Options, the centre will provide education, as well as access to a host of cutting-edge facilities, including a theatre, gallery, performance space, audio-visual studios, multimedia and a café. Participants will learn artsy skills, alongside self-confidence and career development.
And you're invited to the launch, happening at Barangaroo's The Cutaway on Tuesday, November 15. It's in the form of an art exhibition titled I'm Still Here and created by artists involved in Front Up's 12-week pilot.
The artists spent three days exploring the AGNSW's current exhibitions: Julian Rosefeldt's Manifesto, Eko Nugroho's Lot Lost and Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera: from the Jacques and Natasha Gelman Collection, before getting down to their own works. The show includes paintings, sculptures, installations, performance, poetry and video, exploring identity, visibility and validation.
