More than a week ago we made the walk from Bondi to Coogee beach as we also told you in a previous post. From 16 October till 2 November, you could see the outdoor exhibition “Sculpture by the Sea, Bondi 2008″ where artists from all over the world exposed their sculptors. Unfortunately the exposition is over, but we made a short film to give you a glimpse.
We liked the idea very much of showing the sculptures in this environment instead of a traditional gallery. Most of them fitted in the surroundings very well, like sculptures imitating big toys on a large playground, or a large bubble on the sea, or stones on the rocks, suddenly spitting water on curious children. Another big difference with an usual gallery was that you could get very close to these objects and even touch them. This was a kind of cultural event that you can remember for a long time.
This exhibition is organized every year at different location. The next show will be at the beautiful Cottesloe Beach in Perth in March 2009. For more information you can look at the Sculpture by the Sea website.
