Commonwealth Games Fish
One of the most inspired pieces of public art I have seen anywhere has been the fish representing the Nations and dependencies of the Commonwealth. 72 fish in all in the Yarra River. At night they light up every hour with a sound and light show.

Art in Melbourne
Amsterdam comes to Melbourne
Dutch Masters from the Rijksmuseum - Amsterdam, is a collection of 17th century Dutch art, on display in Melbourne while the Rijksmuseum is being renovated. Quite impressive that this collection will be here.
St. Kilda Street Art
Meanwhile in my home neighbourhood of St. Kilda I have been seeing this most amusing street art/political protest installation. Little flags pinned onto dog turds on the nature strip.
The man on the right is Australian Prime Minister John Howard.
