Scoundrel Projects Creates MCA's New Summer Pop-Up Bar 'Colour Fields' for Sydney-Siders
Scoundrel has unveiled its latest commission, a
summer bar for the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia (MCA). Inspired
by this season's headline exhibition, Pipilotti Rist: Sip my Ocean the
popular bar offers Sydney-siders and visitors the chance to view the
harbour in a different light.
Designed by director and artist
James Dive, the facade is created using hundreds of individually dyed
and cut industrial PVC strip curtains. Once inside visitors can
celebrate summer with a vibrant menu created by Culinary Edge, a
colourful cocktail list and Sunday sets by Future Classic.

"After experiencing the vibrant projections and installations of the pioneering Swiss artist Pipilotti Rist, we hope visitors will enjoy a cool drink at Colour Fields and see Circular Quay in a different light."
Says James Dive, director, Scoundrel Projects: "This MCA terrace space is without a doubt, the best blank canvas in Sydney. The
opportunity to
creatively interpret such an iconic location was irresistible."Colour Fields is open all summer every Wednesday to Friday from 4pm and Saturday from noon.
