Soft exhibition opening
Welcome to Country by Aunty Thelma
Lismore Regional Gallery is pleased to present OCCURRENT AFFAIR — a major exhibition featuring new and recent works by influential Aboriginal artist collective proppaNOW. Established in 2003, proppaNOW is one of Australia’s leading cultural collectives – members Vernon Ah Kee, Tony Albert, Richard Bell, Megan Cope, Jennifer Herd, Gordon Hookey and Laurie Nilsen explore the politics of Aboriginal art and culture, re-thinking what it means to be a ‘contemporary Aboriginal artist’.
Aboriginal artists and community members are encouraged to join Gathering Space with Kylie Caldwell from 1.00pm – 3.00pm after the soft opening.
