Melbourne
Cup Carnival
Tuesday 2 November
Flemington Race Course, Melbourne
The Emirates
Melbourne Cup is a truly spectacular event and the focal point of the
Melbourne Cup Carnival. While most of Australia stops to watch or
listen to the race, there’s nothing like being there amongst the
100,000 plus crowd to experience this truly unique event.
It is hard to
convey the sheer scale of Emirates Melbourne Cup Day to someone who has
not witnessed it before. It is an exciting and exhilarating event where
you can experience the pulse of Australia in just one day. www.melbournecup.com/

Sydney
International Art Series - Picasso
From 12 November 2011
to 25 March 2012
at the Art Gallery of NSW, Sydney
This is the most
significant Picasso exhibition ever to come to Australia. Part of a world
tour, the Art Gallery of NSW is the only Australian venue.
Made possible by
the closure of the Musée National Picasso for renovations, this is likely to be
the only opportunity to see Picasso’s work on this scale in Australia.
These are ‘Picasso’s Picassos’ – the works from his own collection that
he left to shape his legacy, which were given to the French state after
his death.
The exhibition is
co-organised by the Musée National Picasso, Paris, the Art Gallery of NSW and Art
Exhibitions Australia. It is part of the Sydney International Art Series,
bringing the world’s outstanding exhibitions to Australia. The series
also features one of the art world’s rising stars, Mexican-Canadian
artist Rafael Lozano-Hemmer, at the Museum of Contemporary Art.
More details at www.artgallery.nsw.gov.au/exhibitions/picasso/
Midnight in Paris
Gil (Owen Wilson) and Inez (Rachel McAdams) are engaged to
be married, and on holidays in Paris with her parents. They are
officially in love, but maybe what Gil really loves is Paris in the
springtime. He's a successful yet dissatisfied Hollywood screenwriter who
still harbours the dream of someday writing a good novel and joining the
pantheon of American writers whose ghosts seem to linger in the very air
he breathes. Gil is besotted with the Paris of the 1920s, when his heroes
F. Scott Fitzgerald and Ernest Hemingway traded dry martinis and even
drier barbs with the likes of Gertrude Stein and Pablo Picasso. Inez and
her family, on the other hand, couldn't care less.
Midnight In Paris' wonderful cast alongside Wilson and McAdams
includes Kathy Bates, Michael Sheen, Marion Cotillard
and Adrien Brody, who delight in amusing and
smartly written scenes. An exhilarating valentine to the City of Light,
Midnight in Paris is a pleasure to watch - beguiling, magical, thoughtful
and very funny, and a paean to dreamers and romantics everywhere. Now showing in cinemas! |
