About

The next chapter in QAGOMA’s flagship exhibition series will feature 70 projects from across Australia, Asia and the Pacific, encompassing work by over 200 artists, makers and thinkers.

Across QAG and GOMA, ‘The 11th Asia Pacific Triennial of Contemporary Art’ will reflect the region’s social and cultural diversity, drawing on a wealth of cultural expression and including artists not previously exhibited in Australia. APT11 artists consider knowledge in its many forms, following thematic threads such as care for natural and urban environments, intergenerational experiences of migration and labour, and nuanced approaches to storytelling, materials and technique. First Nations, minority and diaspora cultures are crucial to APT11, and the exhibition highlights the collective, performative and community-driven artmaking that thrives in the region.

Building on three decades of engagement in Asia and the Pacific, APT is developed by a team of QAGOMA curators working with co-curators, advisors and interlocutors from across the region and in South-East Queensland communities.

APT11 will be accompanied by live performance, public discussions, cinema programs and projects for young visitors, along with ongoing community engagement activities and research partnerships, as well as a fully illustrated publication and newly commissioned digital essays for the Asia Pacific Art Papers series.
