Australasia’s international art fair, Sydney Contemporary, today announced it will become an annual event from 2017 onwards, responding to gallery and artist demand for a premium art fair held yearly in Australia. Formerly a biennial fair, Sydney Contemporary will be held annually commencing with its third edition in 2017, presented from Thursday 7th until Sunday 10th September, across the entire Carriageworks multi-arts precinct in Redfern, Sydney.

The 2017 edition of Sydney Contemporary will feature more than 80 leading Australian and international exhibitors from around the pacific rim and further afield including China, Hong Kong, The Philippines, Singapore, Chile and New Zealand. Works spanning a diverse range of mediums, from established through to emerging artists will be showcased in museum-quality booths across seven large-scale exhibition spaces at Carriageworks, complemented by a robust curated program of talks, performances and events.
