About the Book
This book has been compiled as a record of Ken Unsworth's art event in the Turbine Hall at Cockatoo Island in Sydney on 28th May 2009 in honour of his late wife Elisabeth.
The book features images of Ken Unsworth's very beautiful & moving Art Installations and excellent musical and dance performances. Musical director Jonathan Cooper conducted the Sydney Lyric Orchestra and there were outstanding vocal performances by Natalie Gamsu. The excellent wine and food was provided by Belinda Franks. There was a wonderfully conceived posthumous performance by Elisabeth Unsworth after her Piano descended from above. The audience were treated to outstanding dance performances by Australian Dance Artists. This was an Art event like no other Sydney has seen before motivated by Ken's love for Elisabeth. All this took place in a stunning, purpose built gallery and ballroom designed by Ken to take his 170 guests on a magical and mystical journey.
