Today, Kate and I joined Dougal Phillips (Public Programs and Education Manager at the Biennale of Sydney), as he toured a bus full of international curators around various galleries around Sydney. We went to the Sherman Foundation, Anna Schwartz Gallery, The White Rabbit Gallery, and the Roslyn Oxley Gallery. At each venue we were greeted by the owners/founders of the galleries, and given a short history on the institution etc. It was great to be able to mingle with the curators, since some of them have 20-30 years experience curating in an international context. We were permitted to mingle, and chat, and even enjoyed a lovely catered lunch at The White Rabbit and tea and coffee at RosOx with the curators. It was a great experience, particularly since I had not been to 50% of the galleries we visited. Can’t wait for the Artists’ and Supporters’ Party at Cockatoo Island tonight, I hear it’s L E G E N D A R Y (as Barney from How I Met Your Mother would say!). Ha!
Jackie, Dougal and Kate
