Primavera at 25: MCA Collection

Overview

Sydney's Museum of Contemporary Art is celebrating the 25th anniversary of Primavera, the gallery's annual exhibition dedicated to showcasing the work of Australian artists under the age of 35. Featuring pieces selected from the MCA collection, Primavera at 25 will be exhibiting both established and emerging artists working across a range of disciplines from painting, sculpture, video, performance, kinetic and installation art.

Many of the works in the exhibition explore the concept of transformation: moving, twirling, shimmering and spinning to create new forms. Others examine the notion of time, with pieces keeping track of or recording time, and deliberating ageing and degrading right in front of your eyes. Many of these works draw on the idea of personal and shared memories.

So if you're interested in reviewing the past and possible future of Australian contemporary art and are keen to discover young artists, make your way down to the MCA from December 19 to amble through the works of these talented creatives.
