Overview
Tucked away in a quiet corner of Chippendale, the White Rabbit Gallery is impossible to miss: just follow the bicycles of Sydney's cool kid art crowd which constantly flow to and from its doors. Filled to the brim with celestial and provocative treasures, this four-level art space is currently the largest private gallery in Sydney. Plus, the library and tearoom both feature delicious treats.
If that's not reason enough to make an excursion, the first Sunday of every month features a film club in the gallery's theatrette, showcasing the best that Chinese cinema has to offer.
April's is Hero, the hugely expensive film that took almost two years to appear in English (courtesy of Quentin Tarantino). The colour-based cinematography of the film, which helps to trace different character versions of the plot, is singularly perfect for a gallery space, while the fight scenes are completely out of this world. Not to mention the screening is free; Perfect for a lazy Sunday afternoon.
