Concrete Playground

While his name may sound more like a cartoon character thought up to teach you about the birds and the bees, Rupert Bunny was an incredible  Australian artist celebrated for his series of Impressionist works created during his many years in France. His portraits portray a romantic vision of glamorous and beautiful women in early twentieth century Paris. Alongside an exhibition of his paintings Rupert Bunny: artist in Paris, the Art Gallery of NSW is also presenting a series of films inspired by Bunny's works, depicting the many bohemian visions of Paris created by directors throughout the last fifty years. See the art and then watch a film — get hopping.

All films are free.
