Please join artist Dr Fiona Foley for an In Conversation event with curator Djon Mundine OAM. Discussion will focus on the themes and ideas in Foley's major exhibition "Who are these strangers and where are they going?" Tickets are $10 and include a glass of wine or soft drink. As part of the 2020 Sydney Festival, the National Art School proudly presents "Who are these strangers and where are they going?", a 30-year survey of the work of Dr Fiona Foley, one of Australia's most acclaimed, insightful and challenging contemporary artists, curated by Djon Mundine OAM. The show premiered in August 2019 at the Ballarat International Foto Biennale in Victoria. The title comes from a new work, a soundscape based on the oldest known Aboriginal song documenting the first sighting of Captain Cook in 1770, by Foley's ancestors the Badtjala people of K'gari (Fraser Island).
