The Studio of Jorn Utzon
The Museum of Sydney

 

'The Studio of Jorn Utzon' was the most comprehensive exhibition yet assembled of Jorn Utzon's designs for the Sydney Opera House. It revealed Utzon's design processes and working methods, his personal philosophy and sources of inspirations. The exhibition featured Utzon's pencil sketches, plans, models and archival films including his personal travel films of Asia, Mexico and the Middle East.

"...In the Museum of Sydney is a captivating exhibition about Utzon, the Danish architect of the Sydney Opera House. The Studio of Jorn Utzon is a marvellous exhibition, full of surprising information."
