As I am writing this, I feel like it’s the beginning of WYD 2.0. I am typing this on a brand new computer. That’s right, I no longer have to copy and paste my Q’s, A’s and W’s like I did last year. My old lappy and I had a good run but this is a fresh and fully functioning start, so it’s a good time to touch base again with the core of this weekly art update.
Australia has such a rich and diverse art scene that extends beyond the NGV’s walls alone. The local galleries and your neighbourhood artists that are putting in crazy amounts of work deserve all the love they can get, sure, but that’s not the reason we post this weekly write-up. It’s just as much about you finding ways to inject some art and culture into your week to break up that working grind. With so much to check out just around the corner, it’s worth sending your mate’s a ‘WYD?’ message and sussing the gallery hot spots around you. There’s never a bad time to soak up some inspo, so be sure to have a flick through the list below and see if anything get’s that right side of your brain churning.
In the meantime, I’m going to enjoy the benefits of my new laptop—all I need now is a working internet connection.
As always, make sure to let us know WYD by sending your art events to [email protected].
