MCA ARTBAR curated by Brook Andrew

Overview

Art plus bar. This almost universal gallery opening deal is a pretty tasty mix already. But the MCA adds extras to this time-honoured tradition with its now SMAC-winning series ARTBAR. They're evenings of strange and interesting things at play among the art, recurring monthly and curated by a rotating cast of local artists.

This month's festivities are at the mercy of Taboo curator Brook Andrew. He promises performance from artists Liam Benson and George Tillianakis, drag queen Constantina Bush, and some of Mathew Sheilds' almost-Olympic pole dancing. Upstairs, alongside the sculpture balcony's marble tribute to the ear, Andrews himself will project images over the audio ambience of DJ Perfect Snatch and Leo Tanoi.

Concrete Playground has five double passes to give away to ARTBAR on Friday, January 25. To be in the running, make sure you're subscribed to our newsletter and then email [email protected] with your name and address.
