Smashing stereotypes one souvenir at a time.
Tony Albert (Girramay, Yidinji and Kuku Yalanji peoples) is one of Australia's most fearless and influential contemporary artists. The major exhibition Tony Albert: Not a Souvenir brings together his work across sculpture, photography, installation, painting and assemblage alongside major new commissions.
Driven by humour, energy and provocation, the exhibition shows how even objects of prejudice can be turned into symbols of resistance, resilience and pride.
Tony Albert: Not a Souvenir is guest curated by renowned Indigenous curator Bruce Johnson McLean (Wierdi people) and has been developed in close collaboration with the artist.
Exclusive to Sydney. This exhibition is supported by the NSW Government through Destination NSW.
