March 2010 sees Australia’s design community come together for the 8th year for Semi-Permanent in Sydney.
April 4th, 2011
With a week-long celebration of all things aesthetic, Semi-Permanent goes above and beyond, bringing together the design community across a number of conferences, workshops, exhibitions and after parties.
Not to be outdone by last year’s roll call, the boys at Semi-Permanent have secured a raft of talented speakers spanning the Art, Film, Illustration, Photography, Visual Effects and Motion Graphics worlds with everything from Sesame Street to Gucci and Victoria’s Secret. Set to inspire and educate, world renowned artists and specialists in their field will come together to share their knowledge, excitement and passion for their work and impart wisdom and insight on Sydney’s creative population.
Held on the 19 and 20 March at the Sydney Exhibition Centre, speakers for the 2010 Sydney event include:
Andrew Johnstone, co-director of Semi-Permanent comments, “Semi-Permanent is an absolute labour of love for us and we’re thrilled to be heading into our 8th year. We’ve been fortunate to have some of the best names in the business, worldwide, come over to take centre stage and I’m pleased to say that this year looks set to be one of the best yet. Where else would you be likely to see the crew from T-World discuss the ins and outs of t-shirt culture alongside Ashley Gilbertson talking about his experiences with Iraq war and his time as an award winning photojournalist!”
In addition to the conference, exhibitions will this year include a side show from T Magazine – further details to be announced.
