Liveworks Festival of Experimental Art 2019

For yet another year the Performance Space at Carriageworks will welcome an illuminating and intriguing program of experimental art to Sydney.

The Liveworks Festival of Experimental Art draws works from all across Australia and the Asia-Pacific. Each year the event brings some of the regions most groundbreaking and special artists together to push the boundaries of artistic work.

Another major part of the festival is the opportunity for artists and the public to partake in a range of workshops and seminars (known as conversations) detailing how various artists use their chosen medium to express ideas and meaning.

This year’s festival will be showcasing five newly commissioned major works, three world premiere performances, and three Australian premieres. The festival has also expanded its free event offerings this year, particularly in regards to the new late-night music program.

“This year’s celebration of experimental art converges around two central themes: our program of Feminist Sound features women and non-binary artists who champion the intersection of sound art, experimental music and performance. Elsewhere, an array of Culture Disruptors challenge the stories we tell ourselves about who we are, questioning the foundation and future of our cultural identities,” said Artistic Director Jeff Khan.

Oct 17-27. Carriageworks, 245 Wilson St, Eveleigh. Various Prices. Tickets & Info: www.performancespace.com.au
