Sculpture by the Sea
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sydney and Perth 'Sculpture by the Sea' exhibition is Australia's largest annual outdoor sculpture exhibition. 2006 was the tenth year it showed off the beautiful work of both Australian and overseas artists in spectacular Australian Coastal locations. Sculpture by the Sea also returns to Cottesloe Beach for the third annual exhibition from 8th to 18th March 2007. Over 50 local, interstate and international artists will transform Perth's most popular beach into a stunning sculpture park overlooking the Indian Ocean. Hugely popular, this free to the public annual exhibition attracts approximately 40,000 visitors of all ages.
[edit] Bondi
Sculpture by the Sea in Bondi is an annual event. The work is spread right across the cliff from Bronte Beach to Bondi Beach via Tamarama Beach. Every year the coastal walk is transformed into a seaside art gallery. About 100 sculptures are exhibited in the background of sea and the beautiful coastal landscape.
