NEW EXHIBITION LIGHTS UP

Extended late night opening hours during Vivid Sydney will be in operation for a new exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art. The exhibition, Light Show, features 20 installations and sculptures by international artists from the 1960s to the present. Many of the installations have been specially re-created for the exhibition.

Exhibition highlights include the pioneering minimalist sculptures of American Dan Flavin, composed of off-the-shelf fluorescent tubes, French artist François Morellet’s work in neon and David Batchelor’s use of bright, industrially-produced colour. It also features immersive environmental installations by Venezuelan artist Carlos Cruz-Diez, James Turrell, Anthony McCall and Ann Veronica Janssens, among others.

Light Show is at the MCA now until Sunday, 5 July 2015, and will coincide with Vivid Sydney (22 May to 8 June 2015), the largest festival of light, music and ideas in the world.
