Yes people it’s back on. Spring, open air, the ocean and sculptures. What could be better?
For those of you who don’t know Sculpture By the Sea is an annual event held in spring every year in Sydney. Hundreds of sculptures are placed along the famous Bondi to Bronte seaside walk and hundreds of thousands of people come to look at them over a period of two weeks.
For Sydney siders this has to be the biggest art event of the year. Especially for such a superficial city as ours.
In the first part of this (what could turn out to be quite a rant I addressed (a small part) of what I think has to happen for Sydney to continue to grow and move on from a Beta city into a Global city. I’ve also found some interesting plans which I will present and incorporate into my vision.
“It’s certainly no Broadway, Oxford St or the Champs-Elysées”
As anyone who lives in Sydney knows. It’s a horror to get around, even with a car.
The CBD, the supposed inner heart of the city, is without a heart. Emptying out after 5pm as everyone goes home to watch television. Not because there’s something interesting on TV, there isn’t. There’s just nothing to do in the city and even if there was, they’d have to catch a ($50 plus) taxi home as public transportation practically shuts down after 6pm.
