Real Worlds: Dobell Australian Drawing Biennial 2020
The Art Gallery of New South Wales presents Real Worlds- the fourth Dobell Australian Drawing Biennial. Supported by the Sir William Dobell Art Foundation- this exhibition presents new work by eight contemporary Australian artists who create extraordinary new worlds in drawings of great complexity and invention.With drawing as the principal medium- the exhibited works evoke distinctive ways of seeing and making sense of the world. For some- it recreates a physical environment- grounded in a deep connection to place or country. For others- it is an invention that springs forth from history- memory and the imagination.Real Worlds features drawings by Martin Bell- Matt Coyle- Nathan Hawkes- Danie Mellor- Peter Mungkuri- Becc Orszag- Jack Stahel and Helen Wright.Each Biennial has a different curatorial concept and seeks to showcase the vitality and breadth of drawing in contemporary Australian art. Some of the exhibited works from each Biennial are acquired for the Gallery's permanent collection.The Gallery will continue to be guided by the NSW Government's health guidelines.

Salon des Refuses 2020
The Salon des Refuses was initiated by the S.H. Ervin Gallery in 1992 in response to the large number of works entered into the Archibald Prize which were not selected for display in the official exhibition. The Archibald Prize is one of Australia's most high profile and respected awards which attracts hundreds of entries each year and the S.H. Ervin Gallery's 'alternative' selection has become a much-anticipated feature of the Sydney scene.Each year our panel is invited to go behind the scenes of the judging process for the annual Archibald Prize for portraiture and Wynne Prize for landscape painting and figure sculpture at the Art Gallery of New South Wales- to select an exhibition from the many hundreds of works entered in both prizes but not chosen for the official award exhibition.The Salon des Refuses exhibition at the S.H. Ervin Gallery has established an excellent reputation that rivals the selections in the 'official' exhibition- with works selected for quality- diversity- humour and experimentation- and which examine contemporary art practices- different approaches to portraiture and responses to the landscape.Visitors can vote in the Holding Redlich People's Choice Award.Covid-Safe informationWe are registered as a Covid Safe business and have new safety measures.All visitors are required to sign in on arrival if they do not have pre-booked tickets.

Sedition 2020
SEDITION 2020 is an art trail that populates windows in Sydney's CBD and inner Sydney. Our only hope is art!Everyone's talking about transphobia- xenophobia- Sino phobia.- the killer flu. Everyone's talking black lives matter- cancel culture- Trump steaks- civil war and chai latte. We're all wearing activewear- running on hydrogen- harvesting metadata- masticating vegan pizza and looking like bandits.SEDITION 2020 has put the call out to a range of artists to explain just that.This year SEDITION will pivot into an art trail- that takes art out of the galleries and into the streets where works will stimulate debate in the community. In this first- the SEDITION art trail will populate 16 shopfront windows across the city.The artists who have joined with us include: Imants Tillers- Brooke Andrew- Blak Douglas- Reg Mombassa- Julie Rapp- Luke Sciberras Tamara Dean- Claudia Chan Shaw- Jason Wing- Destiny Deacon- Stu Spence- Toby Zoates- Meg Hewitt- Anne Zahalka- Fiona Lowry and Fiona Hall.The works are beautiful- but they are also related to issues in the public discourse - Black Lives Matter- sexism- anti-science- Australia v China- climate change and the toxic side of Australian culture. They are more than pretty pictures.The SEDITION art festival is in its second year. The core of SEDITION 2020 is the art trail that snakes through Sydney displaying some of Australia's best and most provocative artists. COVID-19 has hollowed out Sydney's public spaces and markets and it is in these phantom spaces that art shoots up with hope and beauty and defiance. It's a mean old world now and the hands of joyless repression have grasped our collective necks.Our only hope is art.
