This year’s Arts Series, held at Sydney’s pre-eminent art museums, the Art Gallery of New South Wales and the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia, will present two inspired exhibitions exclusive to our harbour city.
Pop to popism at the Art Gallery of New South Wales will run from 1 November 2014 to 1 March 2015 and Chuck Close: Prints, process and collaboration at the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia will run from 20 November 2014 to 15 March 2015.
Assistant Minister for Tourism and Major Events Katrina Hodgkinson said securing these outstanding exhibitions through the Sydney International Art Series enhances Sydney’s reputation as the cultural tourism hub of Australia.
“Since it was first held in 2010 more than one million people have attended Sydney International Art Series exhibitions at the Art Gallery of New South Wales and the Museum of Contemporary Art, generating more than $80 million in visitor spend," Ms Hodgkinson said.
“The Sydney International Art Series also helps to enrich the cultural fabric of NSW and is one of the many fantastic annual events held in our State, including Vivid Sydney, the Sydney Festival and the ARIA awards.”
Tickets for this year’s Sydney International Art Series are now on sale. A special Sydney International Art Pass is also available and provides discounted entry to both exhibitions.
