OPENS WEDNESDAY JAN 14 11AM-8PM

Exxopolis is a luminarium – a large-scale inflatable sculpture of light and colour, somewhere between a cathedral and a spaceship, or a womb and a mosque. People are invited to wander through its tunnels and caverns, as the colours intensify with the natural light of the sun. Exploration of Exxopolis is up to you – wander beneath its radiant red tree, marvel at the cupola and its ‘windows’, or kick back zen-style in a glowing pod for a moment of mid-festival calm.

Exxopolis also features a special MOFO-commissioned musical composition by Jim Moginie, exploring the connections between music and colour. Jim and his guitar-toting mates (see them perform at PW1) will appear for random live performances within the luminarium as well.

James Turrell harnesses the numinous potential of light and space; kind of like what God would do if He had a degree in architecture. Needless to say we are tremendously excited about our new MONA Skyspace, which we see as an elevation of the museum’s hitherto subterranean ponderings of the human condition. If that sounds vague, that’s because Turrell’s art must be seen to be believed; or, perhaps, not seen, but believed nonetheless.
