| Summary |
Fenella Kernebone visits a major exhibition, the first in Australia of pioneering American photographer Alfred Stieglitz, at the Art Gallery of NSW. It includes 150 of the best and rarest Stieglitz photos ever printed. One third of the exhibition is being lent by the National Gallery of Art, Washington DC, which holds prized photographs selected by his lover, muse and wife, artist Georgia O' Keeffe, and deposited there after his death. The photographs Stieglitz took around his summer house at Lake George, New York State, US after 1915 are considered a major departure and dramatically influenced the course of photography.Art Nation also features a unique singing event, ChorusOz in which aspiring choral singers with dreams of performing before a sell-out audience, get their chance when Sydney Philharmonia Choirs bring their singing spectacular to the Sydney Opera House. Art Nation presenter, singer Henry Wagons will join 1000 singers of all ages to read, rehearse and perform one of the masterpieces of the choral repertoire, Elgar's The Dream of Gerontius. To close the show, The Cat Empire performs in the Art Nation studio |
