Dear Art and Culture Enthusiasts
Best Wishes for 2022 and a warm welcome back to Art & Culture.
The first event for our 2022 Calendar is a guided tour of ‘Matisse: Life and Spirit’ at the Art Gallery of NSW. Developed in partnership between the Art Gallery of NSW and the Centre Pompidou Paris, ‘Matisse: Life and Spirit’ is the greatest single exhibition of the artist’s work ever to be seen in Sydney. Through these works we find Matisse renewing his vision time and time again, continually seeking new ways to celebrate life as he saw it.
