They better take this fight *out back.*
Cash me out back how bou dat?
Well played, but also shame on you.
Classic 😂
'thunder in the land down under' 😂
Congrats. You've won the comments section.
Ahh I'm from Hobart! Completely caught me off guard seeing this lol, I can absolutely vouch for the 'MONA effect'. Festivals such as Dark Mofo relating to the museum have also completely changed the city; literally the entire season of winter has had a cultural shift
Yeah, it has! Also from Hobart. I remember the first Winter Feast, with installations of periodic flame throwers within hands reach. It was wild.
I was so surprised too!
Pleasantly surprised -- and surprised-surprised, like "we've been discovered!" in a bit of shock.
@E Van nah, it honestly revitalised it
I lived there from 2013 to 2018 (for university) the state was very different when I left compared to when I arrived. Definitely MONA + Xi Jinping's visit after the G20 summit in Brisbane has completely changed the way outsiders / mainlanders view Tasmania.
I'm from Melbourne. This also caught me off-guard. Greatly enjoyed visiting MONA when I visited Hobart and surrounds. In general, I think Hobart still beats Melbourne on some other unique points, e.g. nicer harbour, Antarctica museum/museum exhibits, Sea Shepheard ships docking, Nant distillery, and 'cosier' feel. Conversely, Melbourne is much bigger in general, and more diverse. So I hope both places continue to develop. Being so close to one another, I think it will be great if we can encourage more culturally-interested tourists to visit both Melbourne and Hobart.
I live down the road from Mona, it's pretty cool. Dark MOFO is 100% the best thing to come out of it however, the festival gets all of Hobart involved and it's always an experience
MONA is great, but the real reason anyone should visit Tasmania is its nature!
That’s pretty much whole of Australia. If you want arts and culture, that’s not First Nations, than stay in the northern hemisphere.
@@sloppynyuszi When did aboriginals stop being called "aboriginals"??? (And agree with you about the arts & culture. Pretentious art isn't really an Australian cultural thing. I'd rather go to pubs & clubs to meet locals if in Hobart, rather than visit some pretentious art museums/exhibits).
Plus the Wooden Boat Festival. A huge collection of wooden boats fill the harbor. And accompanying foods shows etc
@@mikespearwood3914 we call them abo's or petrol sniffers
@@mikespearwood3914 Mona is anything but pretentious. Sort of the whole point..
Absolutely love that you make so many videos about everything that’s going on here in Australia
As a Canadian, I assumed that you were like us.
As in, I thought nothing happened there.
Maybe I'm wrong on both fronts
You missed the best bit...When that hotel plan was first floated, old mate Walshy made a thing of shortening Hotel MONA to just... "HoMo". Personally, I thought it was quite funny, but it upset a few people round these parts; can't imagine why...😂👍🇦🇺
Pick up your cross and follow Jesus! The world is quickly headed for destruction, and sooner or later you will have to sit at the judgement seat and give an account for your actions. Belief in messiah alone is not enough to grant you salvation - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36 (ESV is the best translation for John 3:36). Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life! - Revelation 3:20.
Contemplate how the Roman Empire fulfilled the role of the beast from the sea in Revelation 13. Revelation 17 confirms that it is in fact Rome. From this we can conclude that A) Jesus is the Son of God and can predict the future or make it happen, B) The world leaders/nations/governments etc have been conspiring together for the last 3000+ years going back to Babylon and before, C) History as we know it is fake. You don't really need to speculate once you start a relationship with God tho.
Can't get a response from God? Fasting can help increase your perception and prayer can help initiate events. God will ignore you if your prayer does not align with His purpose (James 4:3) or if you are approaching Him when "unclean" (Isaiah 1:15, Isaiah 59:2, Micah 3:4). Stop eating food sacrificed to idols (McDonald's, Wendy's etc) stop glorifying yourself on social media or making other images of yourself (Second Commandment), stop gossiping about other people, stop watching obscene content etc and you should get a response. Have a blessed day!
@@isaiahc8390 sheeeeesh. Preach in a church, not on RUclips
@@isaiahc8390 Go and tell people who care. Reported.
@@handyandyaus im sure hes shaking in his boots..
I love how a big city with so much cultural capital feels threatened (to the tune of billions of dollars) by a little island state of 500,000 people.
Im not sure if they feel threatened, its not like they are trying to run MONA into the ground here. 90% of the people visiting MONA are there specifically for that reason, whereas a location in the CBD of such a large city will expose a lot more people to the arts that may have never experienced it otherwise. Which in turn could lead more people to then travel to Tasmania and visit MONA
The video is slightly misleading in that Melbourne isn't building NGV Contemporary in response to MONA, it's building it as part of the upgrades happening to the Arts Precinct as well as the limited space available at the current NGV building. Melbourne has always been an Art focused city so a new gallery of this scale was pretty much inevitable.
@@devilpizza123 yah well obv that's gonna be what they say anyway I think this is more of a joke anyway and shldnt be taken to seriously lol
hahahahaha
“Threatened” is definitely sensationalistic, Melbourne has two arts/galleries, and other museums, and a handful of theatre and concert spaces in direct connection to the fox location
Been to Mona once before, it's a sensory overload and stands on its own as an avant garde museum. NGV caters to a different audience and judging from the press photos, it will be more focused on hosting and promoting contemporary art and artists from around the globe. Another difference here is that Melbourne City is behind the arts in our city and the new NGV build and if it wasn't for David Walsh, not sure Tasmania today would have any attractions of that magnitude to speak of beside its nature. Also Tasmania and Melbourne aren't in a competition, I enjoy visiting Tasmania for it's beauty and quiet lifestyle and love being in Melbourne for its restaurants, culture, shopping and events that take place. Both have very different things to offer different people.
I'm a fan of both cities, so I agree: both are worth visiting. But I grew up in Sydney so everyone in both of those cities think I'm a wanker anyhow. 😏 (This is where I'd insert some smart-arse comment about ARL v. AFL, but I don't actually care about football.) (Oh shut up, Britain-that's soccer! 😉)
The kylie and dannii tag at the start has me screaming!! I never thought my love for the minogues and construction would end up on the B1M 🤣❤
me too!
Same. Amazing. 🤩
Also love the timing on 2:40

The War Between Kylie and Dani...!
I live in Hobart for five years as MONA was taking off, it has had a massive effect on the state, especially the MONA FOMA (summer) and DARK MOFO (winter) festivals. Nowadays I am living in Melbourne, not far from where the new gallery will be built. I'm looking forward to it!
The MONA FOMA (SUMMER SOLSTICE) THE DARK MOFO (WINTER SOLSTICE) THE TWO EQUINOX FESTIVALS
"and Danii - well we don't really know her songs"
SAVAGE 😂
Dani and Kylie don't know the B1M "content" either...
@@michaelrmurphy2734 Dani and Kylie are both subscribed to B1M
“Arguably I’m a complete waste of space…” this guy has a level of self awareness I can only admire
The ferry to MONA is optional. It's a short drive from the city centre.
Also there is the big redevelopment of museums going on in Sydney. The Australian Museum just had a massive multi-year refurb, and the Powerhouse Museum is going to be multi-site across the city.
I haven't even heard about MONA until now but I'm now googling flights from Canada as we speak! Plus, not gonna lie, I love that millionaire's candor... "I'm a complete waste of space..." FINALLY! Someone says what almost 99% of the population was already thinking... ;-)
Also looks to be a great reason to visit both cities in one trip! Brilliant...
He was involved with the gambling industry, and specifically poker machines, which are very controversial across Australia. So he was just being honest about how the majority of the general public will feel about him.
Sounds a bit like our Denise Coates, she became one of the richest women in the world through her BetFred gambling site and now makes over 200 million a year in salary, she even earned a knighthood from the Queen. Not bad for a woman that is responsible for countless thousands of deaths and ruined lives. One more reason to despise our royal family if any Aussies still need one.
@@krashd These sorts of turds get rewarded in Australia too.
You’ll love Tassie - well worth a driving tour if you have the time.
Also we have a few nice things up here in my small town - it’s called ‘Sydney’; you may have heard of it. Hope you can swing by.
I wish we also have a museum war in our country.
You don't pay taxes I take it :,)
@@yeetdeets Mona wasn't paid for by taxes. Walsh could easily have bought a $250m vanity yacht; instead, he spent the money in the the down trodden suburb he grew up in. Dark mofo next week too!
@@yeetdeets the vacuum of space is always an option
@@yeetdeets In my country? I pay my taxes and it is better they spend it on Museum Wars than they pocket it and build roads that will have potholes a week after they build it.
@@scorpioninpink I live in a rural area of one of these states (Victoria) and I would much rather they build some roads with my taxes - even if they do get potholes. We still have roads closed around my region from the fires that destroyed this area 2.5 years ago.
But instead we spend Billions to build a bigger art gallery.
now i want to go to a museum!
If you're going to illustrate a piece about Australian art with pop stars from Neighbours, you missed a huge trick - the perfect one to use was Craig McLachlan with "Hey MONA" 😆
I visited Tasmania. It is stunning. To me, best part of Australia.
It is hands down.
most australians would probably say the same.
That intro was lit.
Before this video I couldn't place Hobart on the map and now I want to go there. It's a shame that architects, dreamers and billionaires don't all try to transform their cities for the better.
Imagine what Bezos could do for Albuquerque
Hobart is a really lovely city full of tourist traps that you are very happy to be trapped in. My favourite is the 200 year old sandstone warehouses of Salamanca Place that have been transformed into cafes and shops overlooking a park and the waterfront. Behind them looms a high mountain that is snowcapped in winter. I've been to plenty of cities in Europe that are the same size (around 250,000 people), but Hobart is nicer than any of them.
I lived in hobart for a long time, this video only captures 1% of just how cool MONA is. It's basically like a really cool supervillan lair thats open to the public.
The greatest shame is that the head of Arts Tasmania is a piece of the proverbial. Single handedly holding back the arts in this state.
Tassie Girl here; Museum wars are probably one of the better kinds
Also MONA is quite accessible by road, though it is a little bit north of Hobart
Two amazing cities, both with amazing projects for the arts. As a Melburnian who visits Hobart monthly on business, I can’t wait to see how this goes!!!
This is degeneracy not art
@@immanuelkant7895 Awesome isn't it?
@@immanuelkant7895 lol, this guy thinks art hasn’t always been degenerate. It’s meant to offend your precious sensibilities.
The tongue in cheekiness of this video is pure genius
I grew up in Tasmania, live in Melbourne and this channel is still teaching me about them
Great to see Hobart get some love
Unreal. Good on Hobart! Hopefully an inspiration to smaller regional cities everywhere! 🎉
The new NGV in Melbourne is the tip of the iceberg, the tallest tower Aus is gonna be built pretty close to it and transform that neighbourhood!! Don’t need a ferry to get there ;)
Mentioning Hannah Gadsby is always funnier than Hannah Gadsby.

Looking forward to the Melbourne muesum sounds so interesting
Hey can you cover the golden temple?
Its made of real gold
Went to MONA when i was there to perform at Dark Mofo a few years back. Best museum experience i've ever had. Felt like i was in a baddies lair from a Bond film
I visited Mona from Melbourne earlier this year, I have to say it the art wasn't for me but the highlight was the building and surrounds so incredible and well worth the visit.
So why did you bother? In an art collection it is the collection that matters, not the building.
@@michaelrmurphy2734 I live near it and we go to the grounds all the time without going in. It has cool facilities for the kids, live music and a few bars.
@@castorchua Hunh. You would have to pay to enter, right? Any free admission times?
Same for me. I wasn't a huge fan of the art but did love the location, architecture, and general quirkiness.
@@michaelrmurphy2734 No, anyone can hang out on the grounds for free and Tasmanians can enter the museum for free at any time so long as they have some ID.
MONA is free for Tasmanians and is built in a blue collar suburb which makes it cooler still.
How many blue collar residents did it displace? How much affordable housing did it destroy?
@@michaelrmurphy2734 It's still pretty blue collar and contains quite a lot of affordable housing for Hobart. There is a shortage statewide but you can't blame MONA. Developments still happen in this part of town while the rest of the state is dominated by NIMBYs
Appalled by the fact that no research has gone into Danii Minogue's discography! Otherwise a fantastic video, as usual! :))
Everyone should go to Tasmania for it's natural beauty, people and food... and of course, the MONA. Highly, highly recommended.
As a native Hobartian, I can attest to the huge positive impact MONA has had on our city. When Dark MoFo started (Winter Solstice art festival put on by MONA) the festival director told us to "suck it up, buy a puffer jacket, and embrace winter". And we have, the puffer jacket is now called a Tasmanian Tuxedo. $0.02
Fascinating watching this video as a lifelong Tasmanian resident. I don't think a single person here is aware that we have a construction rivalry with Melbourne :P
These museums look incredible. I need to get to Tasmania.
Oh boy. Can't wait for another museum full of thrilling modernism. What a high water mark of Australian culture.
Tell me about it. It’ll be a centre for boring people who make a really conscious effort to call themselves cultural.
These will solve Australia’s most pressing problem, the sever lack of self important cvnts.
HAHA!!! Yeah, as if there was nothing before the Europeans came.
Not much thought for the Aborignials there.
😂😂😂😂😂
I love how B1M has upvoted you (and likely missed your sarcasm).😝
Currently the area feels like a bit of a car park, so any change is definitely welcome
Who would have thought that Hobart would loom large over the art world? Amazing. Although I do wonder how your average low-level artist benefits from pretentious and extremely expensive 'art-posturing' buildings. We seem to have reached an age where all art is performance art of a sort. You can't make it big without being over the top.
Andy Warhol, Jeff Koons, the art world pop stars.
Hilarious🤣.. (I'm a Kiwi... so go figure)
I've been to Melbourne a few times (family) and Hobart once (My mother's bucket list).
We loved Hobart & Tasmania, and liked Melbourne (lost my father in the Melbourne Museum - he walked 9 blocks back to the hotel!)
To me, the shortest flight is between them so why not visit both (and p#$% off Sydney to boot 😁)
Visited MONA in 2013 and it's the best museum experience I've ever had. Greetings from Germany, lovely Tasmania!
Gotta say as guy who’s worked as a tower crane dogman/rigger in Melbourne for decades now that my hometown really punches above its weight on this channel! Love your content mate. Keep up the good work!
Mona is very fun, well worth a visit when in OZ
Hannah Gadsby being from Tasmania is not a positive attribute of Tasmania. She is severely unfunny.
OMG OOOO MY GOODNESS l had to laugh about the Kylie Mlnogue and Dannii we don't know her songs best ending to a video ever.
Why are people rushing to post comments on a video they have not even watched yet? Everyone is desperate for attention?
True, pretty pathetic. Here have my like I hope I get yours in return!
I’m from Western Australia - didn’t know MONA existed. Thanks - will definitely be visiting Tassie soon. BTW we have other and better international superstars - just saying ….
0:09 lmao .. video havent even started and the B1m already being savage!! that was funny!
The shade to Dannii @ 6:20 lol DEAD!
You didn’t mention the wall of vaginas.
Read some reviews of MONA. Some are hilarious. Though honestly from photos in the reviews there are only 3 or 4 must sees. Tate Modern is likely far more impressive.
I will say however, Hobart is an infrastructure nightmare. As a Tasmanian, you see it a lot. Older generations dont want any change what so ever, so all the roads are unequipped for the population growth, there is no decent public transport and we currently have a housing crisis. I cant wait to move out of Tasmania
Wow those Minogue digs. I never expected the B1M to be so petty and I absolutely love it.
Dannii "I Begin to Wonder" Minogue... "I began to wonder myself... was my only global "hit" in 2003 enough to cement my reputation as an also ran in the pop game?" TLDR: It isn't... Need more songs! MORE INPUT STEFANIE! ;-)
They're gonna be better than the Louvre! I may go visit there if I'm not going to Sydney but still Australia (the country).
Great achievement videos uploaded thanks B1M
i misread the title as saying The $4bn War Museum suffice to say i was disappointed
Hannah Gadsby 💀
So glad to see a video of a place outside of the 5 or 6 cities we always see on here.
But can you get a succulent Chinese meal at either of them?
Can you please do a video about cartersville expansion plans for the High school
Another incredible video by B1M
I really enjoyed it
Thank you very much

Remember who’s land you are on and acknowledge the traditional owners of the land
Both of these major projects, the extant MONA in Hobart and The Fox NGV in Melbourne in the pipeline, have been designed by Greek Australian architects. Nonda Katsalidis completed MONA and has won prestigious awards for his design and Angelo Candalepas whose winning design for The Fox NGV will be constructed in Melbourne. Katsalidis and Candalepas have also designed many other significant buildings throughout Australia and have won awards for those as well. They are both just two of the many Greek Australians architects who have been involved with major building projects throughout Australia, in all the major cities as well as regional areas.
If they're born and raised here...just call them Australian.
Great video. you've remind me of what someone once said❤️ "The mind is the man, the poor is in it and the rich is it too". This sentence is the secret of most successful investors. I once attended similar and ever since then i been waxing strong financially, and i most tell you the truth..
They labelled the new Melbourne gallery as "Melbourne's Eiffel tower" on 7news lol.
we already have our own version of the eiffel tower, well 2 actually: the arts centre and the radio tower on the herald sun building
We've came long way from war museums to museum wars
Legit tho, i originally read it as war museum. Lol
I'm a simple man. I see a video that mentions Melbourne, I watch it.
Do they have in their collection the famous "MONA Lisa"?
Found your channel recently loving the absolutely amazing videos.
I know it for years
David walsh is quite a nice guy however he has a really weird hobble walk
Yeah I wouldn't list Hannah Gadsby as a plus for Tasmania lmao
Usually it is "War Museum", not the other way around 😂
It is a fantastically odd place...with a fantasticly odd owner.
I really enjoy and like these videos about Australia
you are doing great job 👍🏻
who the fuck are kylie and dani. Im from the USA.
Interesting topic. More videos on Australia please.
Cripes! Kylie in gold hotpants 🤪Bless her heart!
You're British right, not Australian?
$4BN? And I thought Berlin's next 'Museum of the 20th century' would be expensive at 400M€... stupid me.
As long as we all agree, Hannah Gadsby, is not funny.
Hobart Tasmania, my state, my city, my home :)
As an Australian and having spent two entire days at MOMA, I highly recommend that it be visited, and that an open mind be kept. There will be something for everyone. 🇦🇺
I think you mean MONA. MoMA is the museum in New York. And The Met.
agreed, loved my time at Mona, never been to a museum / gallery like it
@@michaelrmurphy2734 you are certainly correct.😊
MONA is an incredible place that keeps calling you back. Even if you don’t appreciate all the art, you will appreciate the amazing architecture.
what a waste of money when so many people are suffering
like Australia has any culture to begin with
mega projects that promote culture, landmarks and public health are my favourite. now this is an exciting billionaire war. the intro was so epic lol
Sooo you are telling me that all Melbourne really needs is a ferry 🤔
Nah a proper river 😂
Hobart will never compete with Melbourne lol
TBH I'd much rather they spent some money on the State Theatre complex,
take that embarrassment of a Spire down..which sits like a hat on the building,
and finish the building properly.
In the construction phase I would walk by it on a weekly basis and the reinforcing rods that were protruding
from the exterior walls were just cut off and a bit of mortar smeared across them.
To this day if you walk past you can still see this eyesore , and displayed for all the world
to see on Google street view.
Never even heard of those girls, lmao
I think it is an exaggeration to call Melbourne the 'most livable city'. Personally, I believe the variables are so personal, how on earth do you define what the most livable city should have in it? But it is certainly a pleasant place. One can do a lot worse! Thank you for the video!
Isn't that Cross on the left on the Thumbnail upside down?
It's a symbol for Satanists, it's on purpose. Remember the theme of the museum is "sex and death". Worshipers of Satan love that stuff
Upside down crosses are considered satanic, I assume as it features "sex and death", it's symbolising that rather than Christianity
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_Mofo
It was an exhibition in one Dark MOFO. That's the winter festival associated with Mona. Certainly a talking point
B1M BABY!!! 💪🔥👍👌❤️🐶🐂🐎😎

Wonderful and excellent and beautiful museum brother
Hubris, revenge, sex, death and *really* b i g buildings?

"If you're not australian you probably don't know where Hobart is" - I think what you meant to say was 'If you're american you probably don't know where Australia is"
