The Gallery celebrates 20 groundbreaking projects brought to Australia by John Kaldor, with an exhibition of 40 Years of Kaldor Public Art Projects.
Projects documented in the exhibition include:
Christo and Jeanne-Claude came to Sydney and wrapped the coastline (1969).
Gilbert and George climbed on a table at the Art Gallery of New South Wales and sang Underneath the arches (1973)
Jeff Koons' 12 metre Puppy outside the Museum of Contemporary Art captured the imagination of Sydney (1995).
Video artist Bill Viola exhibited works from The Tristan Project in St Saviour's Church and the Gallery (2008).
To coincide with the exhibition, Kaldor has invited Tatzu Nishi, a Japanese conceptual artist based in Berlin, for another ambitious project. Nishi will transform Gilbert Bayes’ grand equestrian sculptures outside the Gallery with his new work War and peace and in between, enclosing these sculptures within domestic rooms and creating a surreal environment, which visitors can enter.
