Aluminium is the essential metal that Alcoa Australia produces, favoured by many sculptors as it is strong, light weight and has non-corrosive properties. Be sure not to miss the Alcoa Aluminium Sculpture Trail that will include works by 14 of the exhibiting artists from across Australia and India who have used aluminium in their sculpture.
