The year 2024 was a golden Olympic year, with the politics mirroring the competitive cut and thrust of sport. Team players punched above their weight, while others were hit-for-six. The 2,500-year-old concept of democracy was tested around the globe with more than 80 countries and more than half the world's population voting in elections.
Behind the Lines 2024 celebrates the year's best political cartoons. Featuring established and emerging cartoonists from across Australia, this exhibition highlights the significant contribution they make to cultural and political debates through witty, insightful and often poignant satirical cartoons.
This exhibition is supported by the National Collecting Institutions Touring and Outreach Program, an Australian Government program aiming to improve access to the national collections for all Australians.
