Sydney Opera House Kicks Off Yearlong 50th Anniversary Celebration With New Projection

Storyful

The iconic sails of Australia’s Sydney Opera House were illuminated with a new digital art projection and soundscape on October 19, marking the start of the venue’s yearlong 50th anniversary celebration. The 17-minute projection titled “From the Sails: Light Years” was created by Sam Doust and Art Processors, and features images from the building’s construction and opening in 1973, as well as clips of performances from artists such as Bangarra Dance Theatre, The Australian Ballet, Lizzo, and Kraftwerk. The show will be held from sunset to 11 pm October 19 through 30, according to Sydney Opera House, and can be viewed in person or via the opera house’s livestream. The opera house promises a further 230 events and experiences over the next year in the lead-up to its 50th anniversary in October of 2023. Video released by Sydney Opera House shows parts of “From the Sails: Light Years” as well as comments from Sydney Opera House CEO Louise Herron and Minister for the Arts Ben Franklin.

OpticalArtInc. is an art project that was launched in 2009. The initial works consisted of simple forms of Sacred Geometry, which were then fertilized by the influence of Op Art. This is how the first Op-Art works by OpticalArtInc came about. This was expressed in static works of art, as pictures for the wall or as design pieces of furniture, but it shouldn't stop there. We set out to give Op-Art a different form of representation by bringing this art direction into three-dimensional space, thus creating the series of “Plastiques”, “Kaleidoskopic” and, ultimately, the idea of making Op Art movable. "Op-Art in Motion" was now the new creative area, from which the street art project "Illu my Nation" emerged in 2019, a representation of art in public space, it is what it is, immaterial and in the next moment already extinguished and in another Place.
OpticalArtInc. is the heart of our creative field and with heart, hand and brain we try to integrate art into everyday life.
