Australia: Antipodean Stories

This volume accompanies the largest
exhibition of contemporary art from Australia to be presented outside
the continent. It’s characterised by a surprising richness and variety,
offering a combination of personal stories, languages, ethnic origins,
religions and traditions. The artists belong to many Aboriginal cultures
and First Nations and those that arrived from the Pacific, Europe,
Asian countries and America.

Curated by Eugenio Viola, this
project encompasses a broad constellation of cultural, political and
social practices and perspectives, and takes into consideration
different means of expression such as painting, performance,
installation, sculpture, video, drawings and photography.

Artists:
Vernon Ah Kee, Tony Albert, Khadim Ali, Brook Andrew, Richard Bell,
Daniel Boyd, Maria Fernanda Cardoso, Barbara Cleveland, Destiny Deacon,
Hayden Fowler, Marco Fusinato, Agatha Gothe-Snape, Julie Gough, Fiona
Hall, Dale Harding, Nicholas Mangan, Angelica Mesiti, Archie Moore,
Callum Morton, Tom Nicholson (with Greg Lehman), Jill Orr, Mike Parr,
Patricia Piccinini, Stuart Ringholt, Khaled Sabsabi, Yhonnie Scarce,
Soda Jerk, Dr Christian Thompson AO, James Tylor, Judy Watson, Jason
Wing and Nyapanyapa Yunupingu.
