Canberra: James Turrell's new 'skyspace'
Within without 2010
Australian Gardens
National Gallery of Australia, Canberra
3 years and A$10 million in the making, this astonishing underground installation continues Turrell's series of 'skyspaces' around the world.
The Quaker artist's ongoing masterwork is Roden Crater, an extinct volcano in Arizona's Painted Desert which he has been transforming into a celestial observatory for the past thirty years - see the video below.

Sydney: Big hART’s 'Namatjira'
Namatjira
Upstairs Theatre at Belvoir Street
until November 7
www.belvoir.com.auThis piece of 'community theatre', about the early 20th century Aboriginal painter Albert Namatjira, transcends the genre, delivering an intimate spectacle with heart, soul, humour and profundity in equal measure. It's effectively a 2-hander and Trevor Jamieson and Derek Wyatt are both compelling in their multiple roles. See it if you can. The Sydney season is nearly sold out but an extension and wider tour is likely.
