Cronulla, Art Cube Exhibition

The Art Cube Exhibition was recently held in the southern suburb of Cronulla. It featured three giant cubes in Cronulla Mall, painted by twelve local and international artists. They were located outside the recently vacated Commonwealth Bank building which was built in 1938 in the art deco architectural style. A photo of the old bank can be seen here.

  1. Very interesting. We had plenty of art deco construction here, too, early in the last century. It has never appealed to me. The cubes bring life to the front of the building.

  4. I think the idea of an OutsideArt pop-up exhibition is very clever. Especially while the weather is still gorgeous.
    And there is a clear geometric connection between modern cubes and stark Deco architecture.

  12. Big cubes are a cleaver way of saving space but maximizing the amount of art. There seems to be lots of public art in your area. Lucky you. Hope the crane doesn't foreshadow doom for the deco building. Thanks for contributing to this week's Monday Mural.
