Lively conversation at Cathy Weiszmann sculpture show opening

It was a full house upstairs at Australian Galleries in Paddington despite the rain, with people from across the city coming together to celebrate putting on sale a collection of bronzes. From fauns to demons to Ducatis, a range of objects was on show.

Bronwen came to meet with me and an old school friend named Anthony and we chatted until well past the event close time of 8pm. Weizsmann was friendly as always and I got to talk with a number of people I wouldn’t have met if it hadn’t been for the gallery’s schedule.

Esag is planning to go on Saturday afternoon to Tap Gallery in Surry Hills to hear a talk by Sharla La for her show of paintings, ‘THE RAW. THE NAKID. THE TRUE’ which promises glimpses of modern Bohemia. In doing so I expect it’ll link back thematically with the Art Gallery of NSW talk I saw earlier in the week (see yesterday’s post).

The inner east of Sydney offers multiple opportunities to experience art, so come along if you have a few hours free on the weekend. We’ll be meeting in Botany to do some admin work, then head off by bus (the 309 on Botany Road).
