Bungaree: The First Australian
Featuring new work by 17 Aboriginal artists working across a range of expressive forms, the exhibition offers a contemporary Indigenous perspective on the story of Bungaree and the dilemmas of power, control and identity faced by Aboriginal people then and now. Bungaree: The First Australian is a national touring exhibition organised by Mosman Art Gallery and curated by Djon Mundine.
Contemporary Australian Drawing: 20 Years of the Dobell Prize for Drawing
An exclusive exhibition developed in celebration of the 20th anniversary of the esteemed Dobell Prize, established to encourage diversity and excellence in drawing. The exhibition consists of the winning drawings from the past 20 years and other significant prize entries now acquired into the Art Gallery of NSW collection.
How Yesterday Remembers Tomorrow
How yesterday remembers tomorrow is the inaugural touring exhibition developed in celebration of the 15th anniversary of the coveted Helen Lempriere Travelling Art Scholarship for emerging artists. Curated by Artspace, the exhibition draws upon previous recipients of the prestigious Scholarship – now accomplished artists and key figures pushing the boundaries of contemporary art today. Early works will be displayed alongside recent projects to highlight how an artist’s practice develops over time through research, experimentation and refinement; a process of rediscovering the past in order to look to the future.
Light Sensitive Material: Works from the Verghis Collection
Curated by Richard Perram, Director of Bathurst Regional Art Gallery, Light Sensitive Material: Works from the Verghis Collection is a vibrant selection of contemporary photographic, light and digital media works from the private collection of Rachel Verghis, one of Australia’s youngest art collectors.
Mike Parr: Brain Coral
Mike Parr is widley regarded as one of the most ground breaking artists working in Australia, known for pushing the limits of psychological and physical states to question the nature of identity and creativity. Curated by Katie Dyer of the National Art School Gallery, this exhibition will provide a unique survey of Parr’s prints and drawings; a lesser known but substantial side of his artistic practice and exploration of self-identity. These rarely or never before seen works highlight Parr’s extraordinary artistic endeavour over the past twenty-five years.
Sense of Place
Sense of Place features the work of 8 Australian artists united by their exploration of the boundaries of national identity, cultural propriety and social paradigms - all through the medium of moving image. Organised by dLux Media Arts, Sense of Place includes artists: Kate Murphy, Justin Shoulder, Sarah Goffman, John A Douglas, Brendan Lee, Laith McGregor, Darren Sylvester and Liam Benson.
Survivor: Dadang Christanto
Eminent Indonesian-Australian Artist Dadang Christanto continues his interrogation of disaster and its human impact in a major new performance, Survivor. This performance is based on the ongoing events of the Sidoarjo region of East Java where hot volcanic mud began erupting wiping out 11 nearby villages. Unrelenting, the mud continues to subsume livelihoods, memories and futures. Curated by Aaron Seeto of 4A Centre for Contemporary Asian Art, this touring performance and exhibition memorializes the catastrophe and its ongoing consequences.
