Australasia’s international art fair, Sydney Contemporary launches its new digital initiative Sydney Contemporary presents 2020, showcasing more than 450 new artworks by over 380 leading Australian and international artists. Running until 31 October 2020, the month-long project, designed to support the arts community, takes visitors on a distinctly different, artist-led journey of discovery where the user is encouraged to create a pathway to find the perfect artwork for them, from hundreds of newly created works.
Sydney Contemporary also announced it will present two new artist commissions, supported by Copyright Agency Cultural Fund and created in response to the events of 2020, as part of Sydney Contemporary presents 2020. The commissioned artists are New York based artists duo Jess Johnson and Simon Ward and, in partnership with Performance Space, Sydney-based Koori artist SJ Norman together with New York-based Cherokee writer Joseph M Pierce.
