Australia's festival of contemporary art 18 JUNE – 7 SEPTEMBER 2008.
With over 180 artists exhibiting and events most days - there's something for everyone to enjoy in this year's Biennale. So get involved and revel in Sydney's international festival of contemporary art.
The 2008 Biennale of Sydney is presented at some of Sydney's finest harbourside sites and visitors can take the Biennale ArtWalk from venue to venue along the water's edge. For the first time the exhibition will utilise the astonishing former prison and shipyard, Cockatoo Island. For the fifth time Sydney's only remaining undeveloped historical wharf - Pier 2/3 in Walsh Bay - will feature as a venue.
Sydney's leading arts institutions, the Museum of Contemporary Art, the Art Gallery of New South Wales and Artspace will again be dedicated to the country's foremost international art event. Specific events and artworks will be presented at the Royal Botanic Gardens and the Sydney Opera House, plus in 2008, we are thrilled to present the first Online Venue for a biennale worldwide.
Free Ferry Service to Cockatoo Island every day throughout the exhibition period.
