| 11/4/25 | ![]() Sisters Anney and Mechelle Bounpraseuth are making the ordinary shimmer | Sisters Anney and Mechelle Bounpraseuth grew up in a world that promised paradise later.

| 10/21/25 | ![]() How Artbank's subscription model works for collectors and for artists | What would it mean to eat breakfast with a Brett Whiteley or to pass a Sally Gabori in the corridor?

| 10/7/25 | ![]() Sarah Rhodes explores the relationship between people and place | Some landscapes don't just surround us, they get inside us.

| 10/1/25 | ![]() Quentin Sprague on the art of looking | To write about art is really to write about looking.

| 9/24/25 | ![]() Lisa Reihana brings truth to history | Two hundred years ago, a French wallpaper pictured the Pacific: the islands and empire in perfect harmony against windless calm seas. But it was decoration. Pure fantasy.Until artist Lisa Reihana made history flicker — adding ceremony, desire, misunderstanding, and violence.Her vast video work In Pursuit of Venus [infected] premiered in Auckland, then at the New Zealand Pavilion at the 2017 Venice Biennale. She took a 19th-century French wallpaper, once exotic decor, and transformed it into a living panorama.Reihana talks about what came after that breakthrough and about her latest pieces, at the Sydney Contemporary and Ngununggula. | — | ||||||
| 9/17/25 | ![]() Nusra Latif Qureshi's House of Irredeemable Objects | Nusra Latif Qureshi has built a career extending South Asian painting traditions while pressing on empire, displacement, and desire — revealing how power cloaks itself in colour, and how history leaves its mark on objects.The House of Irredeemable Objects at MUMA brings together thirty years of Nusra Latif Qureshi’s work — an examination of tradition, history, and the everyday — alongside a new commission which draws on Monash University's rare books collection. Qureshi explores how objects can carry something larger than themselves — a trace, a wound, or a memory — and reminds us that beauty and violence often walk side by side. | — | ||||||
| 9/10/25 | ![]() Sophie Cape's wild landscapes take out top prize | Some paintings are sealed off from the world: neat, polished, contained.But Sophie Cape's canvases feel porous, weathered by the elements themselves.

| 9/3/25 | ![]() Thomas Demand recreates the world | Throughout his practice, the German artist Thomas Demand rebuilds the world in paper, meticulously constructing life-sized models of everyday spaces or scenes.

| 8/27/25 | ![]() Nicolas Rothwell returns to the Western Desert | Nicolas Rothwell writes at the edges of things. He's twice won the Prime Minister's Literary Award — for both fiction and non-fiction — and his work slides between both registers: fiction brushes against fact, philosophy slips into story.His latest novel, Yilkari: A Desert Suite, written with his wife, Alison Nampitjinpa Anderson, takes readers deep into the Western Desert, showing how Country makes art, how absence reveals, and how silence can heal.Rothwell reflects on his autodidactic approach to art and on the tension between concealment and revelation in the work from the Western Desert. | — | ||||||
| 8/20/25 | ![]() Ben Law on William Yang | William Yang's photographs are part memoir, part invitation. Queer lives, Asian faces, vanished places — all lit with the soft glow of attention.For writer and broadcaster Benjamin Law discovering Yang's work felt uncanny. Like recognition. Like fate. The sense that someone, somewhere, had lived a version of his life and turned it into light.For Law, it wasn't just admiration. It was kinship. Two queer Asian men from regional Queensland. Two artists drawn to thresholds: of identity, of family, of desire, of home.This week on The Art Show, we explore what it means to feel seen in someone else's work, and the unexpected communion that can follow. | — | ||||||
| 8/13/25 | ![]() Garth Greenwell & Mark Armijo McKnight's creative friendship | In 2020, Aperture magazine invited Garth Greenwell to write about Mark Armijo McKnight's photographs.

| 8/6/25 | ![]() Being forgotten and being remembered | Scott Burton made art that touched the body before the mind. But like so many artists and men of his generation, he died of AIDS in 1989.Before he passed, he willed everything to the Museum of Modern Art — his work, his archive, his name — what followed was a slow erasure.Now, journalist Julia Halperin explores how Burton's legacy, once forgotten, is being reclaimed.And Janet Dawson, at 90, is presenting her first major retrospective at AGNSW. Curator Denise Mimmocchi asks us to look again at Dawson's luminous, layered world | — | ||||||
| 7/30/25 | ![]() Making space for a child's perspective | Children live in a world not quite built for them and, for a long time, galleries were no exception. No touching. No talking. Just stand and receive.But, something is changing. Across Australia, galleries are beginning to meet children where they are — not just as visitors, but as artists in their own right.Tamsin Cull, head of public engagement at QAGOMA and Lilly Blue, head of learning and creativity research at AGWA, talk about children's creativity, and how galleries are being transformed by it. | — | ||||||
