Glenn Murcutt and David Malouf, in conversation with Julianne Schultz

A Sydney Opera House Talk in association with the Sydney Architecture Festival 2009.

Architecture provides the stage for us to play out life’s stories, real or imagined. On stage at the Sydney Opera House, two celebrated Australians, novelist David Malouf and architect Glenn Murcutt - in conversation with Julianne Schultz - explore how the world we have literally built around us shapes our lives, for better or worse.

Julianne Schultz is the editor of Griffith REVIEW and a professor in the Centre for Public Culture and Ideas at Griffith University.

This wonderful conversation will be the headline event of the Sydney Architecture Festival, a one-day program of talks, tours, exhibitions and children’s activities, all focused around Sydney Customs House and Circular Quay on the public holiday of Monday, October 5.
