No, not Kanye

Art. Modern art. Yes I know the term evokes thoughts of paper mache shapes dumped in a pile and fingerpainting you could have done better yourself, but modern art is fast on the improve, and a little installation called 'Shoot the Player' is proving, just that.

Shoot the Player is exactly what is sounds like. Masterminds of the project Amelia Tovey and Jonathan Ward set about filming spontaneous, unplugged music videos around Sydney, putting great musicians in iconic locations where you’d never expect them to be.
Each single-shot film is a unique, never-to-be-repeated musical and visual experience. You'll see Bob Evans at Bourke St Bakery, Amanda Palmer in her pyjamas, Kaki King at the War Memorial, Sarah Blasko in a tattoo parlour, and lots more.

Shoot The Player installation is presented by CarriageWorks and will run from the 8th until the 30th of January. For more information check out www.shoottheplayer.com. And did I mention it is FREE? Well it is. Wow!
