‘Fair Play’, an exhibition curated by Ben Rak at Manly Art Gallery and Museum.

by Leave a Comment

There is a myth that sport and art are natural enemies, as exemplified by the ongoing debate about the allocation of public funding by governments at all levels in Australia. Fair Play seeks to bridge the gap between these two forms of cultural production and to demonstrate that they both empower us to express ourselves physically, emotionally and intellectually, enabling us to connect and communicate with each other around the world — across borders, cultures, languages, and generations. 

Rew Hanks and Ben Rak have work in the show.

Friday, 9 December 2022 – 10:00am to Sunday, 26 February 2023 – 5:00pm at Manly Art Gallery and Museum.
