Sin City: Crime & Corruption In... |
| 10am - 5pm @ Justice and Police Museum$4 - $8 | |
Sin City: Crime & Corruption In 20th-century Sydney In the second half of the 20th century, Sin City was in every way a fitting nickname for Sydney. Organised crime held a grip on the city and corruption was rife, infiltrating the top levels of politics, law and justice. Focusing on the 1940s to the 1980s, this exhibition will examine some of the audacious crimes, fascinating people and various vice trades - from suburban SP bookmakers and sly-grog sellers to narcotics dealers and flashy illegal casinos - that bankrolled corruption.

Glow Beneath the glow of a sophisticated video tracking system, a lone organic being mutates in and out of human form into unfamiliar, sensual and grotesque creature states. Utilising the latest in interactive video technologies a digital landscape is generated in real time in response to the dancers' movement. The bodies' gestures are extended by and in turn manipulate the video world that surrounds it, rendering no two performances exactly the same. Seymour Box Office - 02 9351 7940

Our Town |

Our Town A small American town like any other; simple, sleepy and cheerful. People here are like people anywhere else: they are born, they fall in love, they die. Ordinary people leading ordinary lives. Or so we might believe, until the Stage Manager - our guide for the evening - takes us on a tour of the town and we begin to glimpse how extraordinary even the most ordinary of lives can be.

Fascinated with unusual angles and vantage points, Dupain created intriguing and breathtaking images, delineated by shadows and his own unique perspective. His world had Sydney at its heart, its pulse radiating from the harbour, Circular Quay, the Harbour Bridge, the beaches, the beat of the city streets and the life of its people.
