Kaldor Public Art Projects today announced a suite of free public programs as part of the 33rd Kaldor Public Art Project, a world-premiere installation by internationally celebrated French-Albanian artist Anri Sala. Presented free to the public from 13 October until 5 November 2017 within the historic parkland setting of Observatory Hill, Anri Sala’s The Last Resort represents the first time the artist has created a major work for an Australian audience.

Positioned on Sydney’s highest natural viewpoint, set against 360-degree vistas of the city and harbour, Observatory Hill Rotunda provides a dramatic location for Sala’s astonishing new work comprising sculpture and sound. The Last Resort is presented over three weeks, free to the public from 10am to 6pm daily, with extended opening hours every Wednesday until 7:30pm, giving visitors an opportunity to experience this multisensory project against spectacular harbour views at sunset.

Audiences can make a day of their visit, joining one of the many free public programs on site, or spread a picnic blanket for a relaxing afternoon of art in the sunshine. Learn more about the artwork with free, daily staff-led floor talks, or participate in engaging weekend programs, including family workshops, stimulating panel discussions and lunchtime talks.
