Takeaways
- Over the next 10 years, the City of Sydney will bring together an amazing group of artists, appealing to the most inventive and exciting artists working today.
- We are identifying opportunities to incorporate public art in our plans for large-scale urban regeneration, including the pedestrianisation of George Street and the NSW Government’s light rail project. New public art created under this plan is enhancing well-known features, highlighting important places and magnifying ideas that have shaped the city.
- All project briefs for art in the city centre will be fair and inclusive and open to equal numbers of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists and artists representing the many nationalities that make up Sydney’s population.
- The plan allows us to carefully choose the right list of qualified artists and keep their project briefs broad to allow these artists to best respond to our sites.
- The briefs will seek inventive, state-of the-art projects that also have an element of surprise.
