The dream job is not wavering for Henry so when we learned of a new exhibition at Sydney University, well, we had to go. Not because he is remotely interested in the Etruscans ( sob-although he did tell me what a painting meant because he had read something about the characters in it-go figure!) but because The Brickman had been commissioned to build a replica of The Colosseum. And build it he did.
Appparently he spent three and a half weeks holed up in his garden studio,aka The Brickmahal, and built and built and built.
It is all kids of crazy cool let me tell you! Right down to the gelato truck that is parked alongside. We walked past the same truck when there! Very exciting stuff.
The exhibition people said that initially they had the barrier only one foot high. They learnt that lesson within minutes. When we arrived it was too tall for most long armed enthusiasts.
You can see some of the press photos here on the other blog. If you're a Sydney person try and get there. I really enjoyed it. All those hours in Art History at high school came flooding back!
See you soon!
