The 'Primavera: Young Australian Artists', Tiyan Baker, Christopher Bassi, Moorina Bonini, Nikki Lam, Sarah Poulgrain and True Truong investigate themes of protest, perseverance, identity and history.

Curator Talia Smith asks what are artists creating to challenge society's prescribed structures, built by a select few to supposedly serve and protect us?

Through new and recent works in various media, including installation, video, painting, sculpture, mark-making and text, 'Primavera' is an exhibition as call to action. Drawing on their lived experience, these early-career artists work to disrupt the dynamics of power and deliver compelling alternatives to the status quo.

'Primavera' is an annual exhibition for Australian artists aged 35 years and under. It was initiated in 1992 by the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia in dialogue with Dr Edward Jackson AM and Mrs Cynthia Jackson AM in memory of their daughter Belinda, a talented jeweller who died at the age of 29. The exhibition commemorates Belinda Jackson by celebrating the creative achievements of young artists in the early stages of their careers.

A Museum of Contemporary Art Australia and Museums & Galleries of NSW touring exhibition, curated by Talia Smith. This project has been assisted by the Australian Government’s Visions of Australia program.
