Miracle metal shines at Sculpture by the Sea
It’s light weight, endlessly recyclable, resistant to corrosion and aesthetically stunning: a few of the reasons aluminium features in eight artworks at this year’s Sculpture by the Sea at Cottesloe. 2012 marks the eighth year of Alcoa of Australia’s partnership with the iconic sculpture exhibition and once again the company has supported several artists who chose to sculpt with aluminium.



Sculpture by the Sea Director David Handley, WA Premier Colin Barnett, artist Johannes Pannekoek and Alcoa Managing Director Alan Cransberg with Johannes’ aluminium sculpture Convolution.

Who we are and what we do
Alcoa of Australia operates the world’s largest integrated bauxite mining, alumina refining, aluminium smelting and rolling system. We are part of the primary aluminium production business. In WA Alcoa mines bauxite from the Darling Range that’s then refined into alumina. We export some alumina, and the remaining is sent to our two smelters in Victoria where it’s made into aluminium. Alcoa also operates rolling mills in Victoria and NSW, as well as Australia’s largest aluminium recycling facility.
