Sydney Biennale, Cockatoo Island, 17 June 2010.

New to my collection Georgian Spring: A Magnum Journal.

I brought it just for the Alex Soth project. To photograph the most beautiful woman in Georgia. He has a way of telling a story like no other.

This is the start of my 2010 Sydney Biennale journey which involved visiting venues several times. Including three trips to Cockatoo Island. Trying to see so much art all at once can be a chore. I thought I could combine all the biennale photos into one blog post but have decided against it because it's just too boring to rant so much about one event.

This is the MCA talk by 2010 biennale curator David Elliott.

On the wall is a photographic work by Sun Yuan and Peng Yu. The black plane is by Brett Graham.

Caught the free ferry to Cockatoo Island.

The silhouette on the right is of Dean Sewell. The people sitting in front of him doesn't look like it's from his $80,000 Doug Moran winning photograph. I guess he must of shot it on this ferry during his return trip.

Here we are again. Another year.

Stairway to Heaven.

I love the holly flag by Gardar Eide Einarsson. Why can't more flags have holes in them. Why do flags even have to be rectangular?

Of course the first exhibition I had to visit was Hiroshi Sugimoto.

Lightning field photographs.

Exhibited appropriately in a power station.

I think they shot Wolverine here.

Portrait of Marcel Duchamp photographed by Man Ray, framed and exhibited with broken glass by Hiroshi Sugimoto.

The Forest of Endor by Brodie Ellis

I couldn't turn away from these 360 degree screens by AES + F.

Lunch.

Aleks Denko: Some Cultural Mediations 1949-2010.

The perfect study room.

Roger Ballen.

Roger Ballen.

These dead leaders by Shen Shadmin gave me the creeps.

Yerr I liked it.

Rodney Glick.

Isaac Julien.

It was getting late and we had only seen about half of what was on offer.

Need to come back and see the rest.

Here we are again. Another year.

I'll be back. Fair dinkum.
