Rising Voices: Contemporary Art from Asia, Australia and the Pacific

A landmark collaboration between the V&A and the Queensland Art Gallery | Gallery of Modern Art (QAGOMA), Brisbane.

Rising Voices will offer an unparalleled view of the Asia Pacific region’s dynamic creative landscape. Foregrounding First Nations perspectives and diverse artistic approaches, the exhibition will feature rare works by over 40 pioneering creatives.

Across geographies and communities, and reflecting on a changing relationship with the past, Rising Voices reveals both diversity and commonality in art-making across the region, marking a pivotal moment in the dialogue between the local and the international that the Asia Pacific Triennial has championed for over three decades.

The exhibition draws on the Triennial’s legacy, arranged across an introduction and three thematic sections. Re-Visioning History demonstrates how artists respond to political conditions, from histories of migration to domestic conflicts and social upheaval. Enduring Knowledge explores artistic heritage and ways of making with local materials. The exhibition concludes with Evolving Faith, which considers how spirituality and systems of faith are expressed in contemporary practices.
