Cool exhibit up when I went, cool pop up by landslide, go upstairs. It’s cool up there. Too.

A fantastic contemporary gallery. Two large rooms present engaging installation and media works, and a smaller side gallery is off interest. The works are installed professionally and the staff is friendly. I highly recommend a visit to Artspace if you're in Sydney.

The 24th Biennale of Sydney at Artspace offers a captivating experience. Among the exhibited works, those of a Ukrainian artist stand out. The exhibition explores the theme of the sun, symbolizing both the climate crisis and cultural richness. The collaboration with the Fondation Cartier pour l'art contemporain showcases Aboriginal art globally. This biennale celebrates artistic diversity while promoting respect for indigenous peoples.
