Penelope Seidler AM will join the Board of Directors of the Biennale of Sydney.

Seidler, who holds various leadership roles within business and the community, is a long-time supporter of the event, having visited every exhibition since the inaugural Biennale of Sydney in 1973.

“With her, she brings a deep passion for contemporary art and a broad working knowledge of both Australian and international arts organisations,” said Biennale Chairman Luca Belgiorno-Nettis.

Of her new appointment, Seidler said: “I am pleased to join the Board of this inspiring institution. I am excited to be working with an organisation that brings contemporary art – something I have been involved with for many years through our architectural practice – to the forefront of public awareness.”

The 18th Biennale of Sydney will run from 27 June – 16 September 2012.

Soundscape serenity meets geometric pizazz

The difference between music and noise is partly how we feel when we hear it. Similarly, the way people respond to an indoor space is based on sensory qualities such as colour, texture, shapes, scents and sound.
