"Sporting Life"
2000-08-16 until 2000-11-13
Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney
Sydney, ,
AU Australia
Sporting Life is a major exhibition that explores the culture of sport within
everyday life. Sport is woven into the complex fabric of our lives from
childhood, through friends, family, neighbours and communities. Sporting
culture in the modern world has many facets: competition, fair play, health,
recreation, and has entered the world of politics and business. On display
during the Sydney 2000 Olympics, Sporting Life presents a fresh and
challenging look at the intersection of art and sports culture today.
Sporting Life comprises three elements: a display of recent and newly
commissioned works by contemporary Australian and international artists; an
Aboriginal and Islander Hall of Fame; and a Trophy Room in which the people
of Sydney are invited to display their 'personal best'.
