Art lovers will be able to discover a collection of 4,000 contemporary artworks, estimated at US$46.5mil . Some of the works will be on display from Jan 29 in the exhibition"From impulse to action", which coincides with the opening of the museum. This bridge is over 160m long and borders the art museum. It houses a creative learning centre, a restaurant and even guest rooms that can accommodate 64 overnight guests. The structure is solar powered and was built to preserve the site's natural drainage system.For Rachel Kent, CEO of Bundanon, it is essential that museums increasingly rethink their operations in order to reduce their environmental impact.
"With the current climate crisis, this is clearly unsustainable. It is vital that museums and galleries, like other industry sectors, actively seek solutions that aim to have a net-zero energy target."
