Laying the foundations for the Sydney Modern Project

An important construction milestone for the Sydney Modern Project was achieved in September when the concrete foundations began to be poured for the Art Gallery of NSW’s new building.

Providing a glimpse – and a bird’s eye view – of the work going on behind the hoarding, the Gallery has produced the first in a series of short timelapse videos, capturing the build through cameras installed at various vantage points around the site.

Watch the Sydney Modern Project Construction timelapse video from November 2019 to August 2020.

The Sydney Modern Project is on track for completion in 2022 with the Gallery remaining open during construction.

The Sydney Modern Project is funded by the NSW Government and private donors and is being delivered by Infrastructure NSW on behalf of the Gallery in collaboration with Create Infrastructure.
