Sydney's Premier Cultural Institutions Announce 49 Artists for THE NATIONAL: NEW AUSTRALIAN ART 2017

Sydney's premier cultural institutions today announced 49 artists to present work in the inaugural edition of The National: New Australian Art. Opening on 30 March 2017 and running simultaneously as a unified exhibition at the Art Gallery of New South Wales (AGNSW), Carriageworks and the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia (MCA), The National 2017: New Australian Art is the first edition of a six-year initiative, presented in 2017, 2019 and 2021, exploring the latest ideas and forms in contemporary Australian art.

The AGNSW, Carriageworks and MCA have collaboratively selected emerging, mid-career and established Australian contemporary artists - living across the country and abroad - to present work as part of a single curated program at the three institutions.

Connecting three of Sydney's key cultural precincts - The Domain, Redfern and Circular Quay, The National: New Australian Art represents the only large-scale, multi-venue exhibition in the city to be focused solely on contemporary Australian art.
