Peloton Is Closing

Sad news from the latest Peloton newsletter:

Peloton was started in 2004 to address the lack of venues for emerging and mid career artists to exhibit in Sydney.  Over 9 years Peloton has exhibited more the 350 artists from all over Australia and the world.  We have prided ourselves on supporting a diverse selection of artists across varying stages of their careers, giving recognition and exposure where due.  Although some costs were passed onto artists in our formative years, as funding became available these expenses were removed allowing us to offer exhibitions without any cost to the artists involved.  This has become a business model that we are incredibly proud of, despite its unsustainability.  Artists are too often taken advantage of, we are pleased that we can say we celebrated them, placing art and artists as our top priority.  Opening on the 8th of March, our last exhibition will be a group show of artists closely involved with the gallery in the past and those who we had planned to show in 2013. It will provide a chance to thank and remember all those involved.  On the 10th of March this year we will close our doors for the last time. 

The current exhibitions on at Peloton are Take My Breath Away and 365 attempts to meditate, which run until Saturday 23 February.
