SUMMARY:Archibald\, Wynne and Sulman Prizes 2026
DESCRIPTION:The Archibald\, Wynne and Sulman Prizes delight and surprise audiences every year with fresh presentations of contemporary Australian painting and sculpture. \nAt its heart\, the Archibald Prize is about storytelling. Who are the people our artists have chosen to paint and what do their portraits reveal to us? In this exhibition\, Australian and New Zealand artists use portraiture to share the beauty and complexity of our times. \nThe Wynne Prize celebrates two major categories of art: Australian landscape painting and figurative sculpture. Diverse representations of our country appear alongside the variety and ingenuity of contemporary sculpture. The Sulman Prize is for subject painting\, genre painting or a mural project. \nEach year\, the trustees of the Art Gallery of New South Wales judge the Archibald and Wynne Prizes and invite a guest artist to judge the Sulman. In 2026 the Sulman will be judged by renowned artist Del Kathryn Barton. \nThis must-see annual exhibition of finalists and winners has become a fixture in our artistic calendar. A single ticket gives you access to see all three of these prestigious awards. \nHave your say by voting for your favourite portrait in the ANZ People’s Choice award for the chance to win $2000. \nDon’t miss Young Archie\, a free display in the Kaldor Hall on the ground level\, showcasing art by the next generation of artists\, aged 5 to 18. Plus\, grab a free self-guided children’s trail in the Archibald\, Wynne and Sulman Prizes 2026 exhibition.

SUMMARY:Little Orange Studio x AGNSW: Pet Palace
DESCRIPTION:Presented alongside the Archibald\, Wynne and Sulman Prizes 2026 at the Art Gallery of NSW\, this salon-style wall features portraits of a different kind\, not of people\, but of other beings deserving of our affection – beloved pets\, spirit guides and creature friends. Created by the artists of Little Orange Studio in Campbelltown\, Pet Palace is a celebration of the unbreakable bonds (and knowing looks) between people and animals. \nFor the Little Orange Studio artists – and for many of us – these relationships are a source of daily care\, companionship and reciprocal support. The mural includes distinguished portraits of pets who have crossed the rainbow bridge\, eldritch beings and animals in everyday life. Campbelltown’s parks and rivers appear as meeting places for dogs and ducks alike. \nFramed by the Grand Courts’ classical archways and set against a painted backdrop of sea and garden-inspired shapes\, Pet Palace is both a playful twist on historical portrait displays and a characterful homage to all those who guide\, comfort and walk beside us.

SUMMARY:Wayne Youle: Back in Five
DESCRIPTION:Back in Five surveys twenty years of one of Aotearoa’s most bold and distinctive contemporary artists. \nWayne Youle’s sculptural practice charts the passage of time not just as a theme but as a material that shapes\, stretches\, and reframes meaning. With his trademark playfulness and wit and working across a broad range of media\, schoolboy pranks meet sharp cultural critique. Youle tackles big ideas—masculinity\, fatherhood\, colonial legacy\, and bicultural identity—while drawing on the humour and irreverence of his younger self. \nDeveloped in partnership with The Suter Art Gallery Te Aratoi o Whakatū.

SUMMARY:Ans Westra: Jeetje
DESCRIPTION:Jeetje is an invitation to re-examine the work of Ans Westra (1936–2023)\, one of Aotearoa New Zealand’s most significant documentary photographers. Jeetje [pronounced YAY-chuh] is a Dutch expression of surprise — and\, in this case\, delight. It sets the tone for this selection drawn from Westra’s vast archive of funny\, tender\, and poignant photographs spanning the 1960s to the 1980s. From poetry readings in graveyards to spirited street protests\, from competitive dog shows to karate kids on skates\, these are scenes that feel as though they could have been captured yesterday. \nThe Dowse Art Museum shared a longstanding relationship with Westra\, from staging her first retrospective in 1972 to hosting her as an artist in residence. Jeetje extends this relationship\, revealing a side of Westra’s practice seldom seen by the public. Thanks to {Suite} Tirohanga and the Westra Estate.

SUMMARY:Alberto Garcia-Alvarez: Nothing is Finished While I Am
DESCRIPTION:In the current issue of recently relaunched Art News magazine\, writer Dina Jezdic observes that “to write a preview of [Alberto Garcia-Alvarez’s] show is to confront the particularity of a practice that rejects the very idea of the preview. \nNo new body of work finished in preparation for exhibition. No theme declared in advance. Only this: 50 years in the same studio\, sunk into the slope of a garden\, light flooding in from high windows – and the continuous act of making that happens inside it.” \n“All my life is here”\, 98-year-old Alberto says\, when she asks about the way a work from the 1970s might appear alongside something made last week. \n“He means it structurally”\, Jezdic explains. \n“The experience of a life does not divide itself into periods\, does not respect the historian’s desire for chronology\, the collector’s desire for series\, the critic’s desire for development. A canvas begun in one decade may be taken up again in another because the thinking it holds has returned – changed\, deepened\, made strange by distance.”

SUMMARY:Shireen Taweel: the trig point
DESCRIPTION:the trig point is an imagining of local sacred architecture and of embodied space\, a work of speculation\, participation\, and a vision of future making. Celestial and terrestrial spectral forms shimmer in their magnitude\, transitioning in space and time. Skeletal geometry draped in silk orbits Alpha Centauri A; the trig point is a house of seven circles\, filled with reverence for environment and perception of place\, and a sonic performance of celestial navigation\, migration and faith. \nThis project is supported by Creative Australia’s Visual Arts and Crafts Strategy (VACS) Major Commissioning Projects fund. the trig point is an iterative exhibition presented with pacing seven circles at Gertrude Contemporary (2026) and Dunedin Public Art Gallery (2027).

SUMMARY:Jasper Knight: collage\, prints and works on paper
DESCRIPTION:Jasper Knight: collage\, prints and works on paper celebrates over twenty years of artmaking using paper-based methods of image making. Jasper\, who grew up close to Mosman Art Gallery on Sydney’s North Shore\, has long documented local landscapes. He came to prominence with his use of found materials and enamel house paint\, imbuing his landscapes with industrial aesthetics. Deeper looking at these works reveals an affection and reverence for these scenes\, often documented as surety against rapid regentrification.

SUMMARY:Elizabeth Day: The Fragility of Goodness: The Prison on the Landscape and Other Stories
DESCRIPTION:Elizabeth Day’s survey exhibition at BRAG examines the legacy of Empire and the colonisation of Australia and its First Nations peoples. The exhibition focuses on the lasting impact of colonial prison systems and how these institutions reshaped both landscape and society. \nThe project connects closely to Bathurst’s history as part of a network of colonial prison towns established west of the Blue Mountains. Day has explored these themes in earlier works: in 2023\, she presented The Flow of Form: There’s a Reason Beyond a Reason. Beyond That There’s a Reason (1797 Parramatta Gaol) at The National 4 at Carriageworks\, Redfern. This large-scale textile installation was made from unravelled second-hand garments and referenced early colonial prison architecture. Through the slow process of unravelling fabric\, the work suggested the possibility of undoing the prison’s imprint on the landscape. \nElizabeth Day’s survey exhibition at BRAG examines the legacy of Empire and the colonisation of Australia and its First Nations peoples.

The exhibition considers how the histories of colonial prisons continue to shape contemporary Australia. Day draws connections between historical penal sites including Parramatta and Tasmania\, engaging with ideas of layered colonial\, geographical and social histories. Her practice is informed by both historical research and personal experience within institutional systems. \nA key work in the exhibition\, The Law Is Not Always Just\, forms part of a new series of grass-grown texts mapping prisons across the Central West. This floor installation sits among several significant works including There’s a Reason Beyond a Reason\, Notes on the Castle\, the sculptural recreation of Bathurst Gaol’s Lion Gate\, Invisible Words Invisible Worlds\, and the collaborative community project MYCO LOGIC. \nTogether\, this exhibition invites reflection on systems of justice\, power and repair.

SUMMARY:Group Exhibition: My Blood Sings Old Songs
DESCRIPTION:‘Some memory cannot be documented. Some memory lives in the body.’\n— Dr Natalie Harkin\, Archival-Poetics (Vagabond Press\, 2019) \nMy Blood Sings Old Songs gathers artists who capture what is not always said—but deeply felt. The works in this exhibition resonate over time\, unraveling layers of the body and the quiet weight of being seen\, where movement becomes a vessel for remembrance. \nHovering between an ending and a beginning\, each gesture holds the knowledge that there’s a certain sadness of memories that cannot be shared with those who were never there. Yet what ties us together is a shared understanding that ripples across cultures and communities\, through performance and the spaces between what is known and shadowed. \nThrough new commissions and existing works\, artists Atong Atem\, Leyla Stevens\, Jahkarli Felicitas Romanis (Pitta Pitta)\, Jenna Lee (Gulumerridjin (Larrakia)\, Wardaman\, and KarraJarri)\, Sonja Hodge (Lardil)\, wani toaishara\, and Tracey Moffatt\, consider how memory is embodied and passed on to honour echoes of legacy\, entangled with grief and joy\, and cultural storytelling unfolds in gestures and resonance—held within our bloodlines. \nCurated by Maya Hodge.

SUMMARY:Alfred Lowe: A GREAT AND WONDROUS SIGN
DESCRIPTION:We all have an instinct to seek guidance and ask questions of the future\, especially during periods of uncertainty. Throughout history\, people have looked upward\, outward\, and inward for signs of what lies ahead. A GREAT AND WONDROUS SIGN inhabits that same space of questioning. Searching for answers and holding tension between hope and apprehension\, faith and doubt. \nThis is mirrored in materiality\, combining the longevity and certainty of clay with the ephemeral freedom of raffia. These materials work in tandem to create works that stand confidently together while having an individual flare. \nWe are all searching for signals of the future\, forever looking up to the stars.

SUMMARY:David Booth: Rearranging the Universe
DESCRIPTION:“The worlds are busy and carefully laid out\, take a look around\,” shares David Booth about the works in his latest exhibition Rearranging the Universe. Extending on his practice of world building\, Booth has created a library of stamps which reshape\, move and rearrange with each print and reconfiguration. About this new body of work\, he shares: “I’ve been building a new practice of play and experimentation in the studio; twisting the dials\, changing the filters and volumes on different things\, practicing turning away from ideas of scarcity and focusing on abundance.”

SUMMARY:Kerry McInnis & Mike MacGregor: Of Ravens and Rivers
DESCRIPTION:Kerry McInnis has been painting and drawing the River for many decades. The focus of her renditions of a waterway\, wet or dry\, has always been to represent the interconnectedness between the river and the earth that shapes it – to investigate the rhythms of liquid and solid form\, to layer in paint the inconstancy of the river in both its power and vulnerability. Moving away from direct representation\, Kerry’s recent work explores the idea of the river as a conduit of life\, a metaphor of survival. \nMike MacGregor’s sculptural oeuvre has had\, as its primary theme\, the interaction of man and nature. In his recent work\, Mike has juxtaposed the forms of Man and the Raven\, illustrating what is\, between the two\, a remarkable connection\, both physical and spiritual. In this exhibition\, Mike’s drawings and sculptures take a deeper look into the Raven’s being. Years of observation of the movements\, antics\, and posture of this bird will become the reference material for this sculptor’s work at the forge.

SUMMARY:Barbara Dawson: Becoming Now
DESCRIPTION:Barbara Dawson’s work is a contemplation of senescence — ageing seen not as decline\, but as a layered experience shaped by growth\, memory\, and renewal. Using the life cycles of plants as metaphor\, she explores the human journey: its fragility\, quiet strength\, and continual transformation. These works trace the parallel landscapes of inner and outer worlds\, finding beauty in both blossoming and fading\, in change\, endurance\, and lived experience. \nThis body of work includes large charcoal drawings of plant forms\, embellished with stitched lines and suspended threads\, alongside A3 stitched photographs on silk. Some capture the soft radiance of full bloom; others\, the quiet grace of wilting forms. Textile hangings created with rice paper\, reclaimed fabrics\, printing\, and hand stitching extend these themes—exploring senescence\, regeneration\, and the emotional textures of time. \nWorking within a limited colour palette\, Dawson explores subtle tonal shifts that evoke both quietude and richness. Through layering\, drawing\, and stitching\, she seeks to express the tactile and emotional fabric of a life deeply felt and continually renewed. \nBecoming Now suggests that ageing is not an ending\, but an ongoing state of becoming — presence shaped by time\, holding both what has passed and what is still possible.

SUMMARY:Brian Hincksman: Abstract Connotations
DESCRIPTION:In Abstract Connotations\, Hincksman explores human nature and our interactions with the natural environment.\, in the face of rapid changes due to the advancement of technology and social change. \nHicksman’s practice allows the simplicity of everyday thoughts and experiences to inspire the paintings. The process can be quite dynamic between contemplation and the use of colour\, form and tone\, along with the fluidity of paint with various forms of mark making. \nThe intent of the exhibition is to inspire respect for our common humanity and further explore our capacity to relate to one another. Secondly\, to explore the beauty and the power of our natural environment. Hicksman’s vivid canvasses imagine ways of living harmoniously with each other\, amongst our own creations\, in the awe-inspiring natural environment we inhabit.

SUMMARY:Steve Roper: Works
DESCRIPTION:Focussing on line rather than tone\, this exhibition features drawings on paper in a variety of media including pencil\, crayons\, ink\, and watercolour. These are not necessarily drawings of things; they are abstract works but may evoke subjects. As clay dries\, it hardens\, and each stage creates a different engagement with the drawing process. \nRoper says\, “Line drawing has been much on my mind of late as it is likely to be affected by Parkinson’s\, which I have had for some time. It’s a shrinking condition. You keep making smaller movements\, but they look perfectly fine to you. \nIn painting\, line gives way to masses of colour. At school\, I was drawn to Matisse’s colour and De Kooning’s techniques. There is a directness that I find very appealing. My take on that is to build up layers of colour and line. Of course\, if you keep building up lines\, they start to disintegrate into shapes. \nFor me\, the appeal of abstract art\, when it works\, is that it gives anyone the opportunity to experience it and work out what they make of it.”

SUMMARY:Jenny Topfer
DESCRIPTION:Jenny Topfer makes paintings that operate in a world of whispers and patient disclosure. Their communicative intent is held — undemonstrative. Such discretion remains rare but for Topfer\, consideration and judgement have quietly accumulated over a long arc of time. \nThere is simultaneously much more and much less at stake in these recent paintings. Made on either side of calamitous fires in Tasmania\, fire that took many of the works and very nearly her home\, these paintings can’t help but infer something of the risk and transience that accompanies making a painting. \nBeneath their tenacious surfaces lies a web of orienteering gestures\, looping calligraphies that are more about personal ceremony and establishing her own physiological cadence than being a dominant substrate to the paintings. They anchor the body of the painting philosophically more than architecturally. In a sense they become fugitive\, subsumed by a newer more robust approach to material. Vestiges of the earlier calligraphy occasionally remain visible as the edges of the canvas — as if the pigment has retreated in a seasonal thaw. \nLook closely at the surfaces and you can sense something of their construction as pigments rasp and abrade over an ever-developing body. You can almost hear the pigment\, feel its advance\, witness its progress as it colludes with the linen. This exchange between energy\, material and support is at the heart of Topfer’s work. My repeated analogies to weather systems\, to the hushed environment they inhabit is simply an attempt to apprehend them assisted by allegory. Truth is that all they ask of you to look as if you were listening — with a little patience and composure.

SUMMARY:Elle Wickens: Skin After Successive Skin
DESCRIPTION:Skin after Successive Skin is born of a story of feminine transformation\, rebirth and embodiment; a story that led Elle Wickens to imagine how they felt language of the body can be recorded through material\, how sensation can paint\, and how painting itself speaks of\, from and to the body. \nIn this exhibition\, Wickens creates an environment that echoes her own sensory tones\, a space where interpretation is embodied\, co-produced\, and where multiple possibilities occur at once. Here\, painting and installation are modes of communicating body to body. Through a considered material approach\, painting becomes a layered sensorial language that Wickens employs to both process and communicate her being to the world. \nSkin After Successive Skin explores the transference between artwork and audience; where the experience of an image or material can converge or depart from that of another\, and where both artist and audience can explore their sensory experiences of the world together.

SUMMARY:Timothy Cook: Parlingarri Jilamara
DESCRIPTION:Alcaston Gallery presents a significant private collection of paintings from 2003-2007 by the esteemed Tiwi artist Timothy Cook. \nThis collection of historical significance and provenance exemplifies a moment in time when the collector focused on the emerging artist and his career development at Jilamara Arts and Crafts in Milikapiti on Melville Island\, north of Darwin in the Arafura Sea. \nTimothy Cook’s art practice is now celebrated worldwide by his distinctive and highly contemporary interpretations of parlingarri jilamara (‘old Tiwi designs’). \nAlcaston Gallery has represented and exhibited many artists from Jilamara Art and Crafts since their inception.

SUMMARY:Kent Morris: FLOWER POWER
DESCRIPTION:Barkindji artist\, Kent Morris\, creates a new series of works starring a very small yellow flower with an incredibly powerful story. \nFor thousands of years\, the tubers of the murnong (yam daisy) were a staple food for First Peoples throughout the southeast of Australia\, cultivated and harvested in the millions from abundant yellow fields. Following the forced introduction of European farming practices\, the murnong almost became extinct and remains critically endangered and rare in the wild. \nNow the plants flower symbolises survival\, resilience and cultural reclamation in the face of ongoing colonial impacts. FLOWER POWER features murnong flowers and cultural designs created from the wind on water\, both generated from photographs taken over many years. The source murnong photographs are of plants Morris has grown in his apartment car park. The photographs of the wind on water were taken at the Menindee Lakes on Barkindji Country. Murnongs grew along the banks of the Barka (Darling River) and prior to colonisation\, were a significant food source for Barkindji people. \nThe works act as portals for reflection and engagement with the significance of this plant and the ecologies of Country. FLOWER POWER reconsiders the fields of yellow that were once across this continent’s southeast\, and the murnongs ongoing importance to First Peoples’ knowledge—a symbol of the power of resistance and cultural continuance. Flowers are utilised to celebrate\, to congratulate\, to mourn\, to express love and care\, and also to express peaceful resistance to injustice. \nThe new photographic series coupled with an immersive walk thorough structure at Melbourne’s City Square commissioned for RISING 2O26\, represents First Peoples sustainable agricultural practices over thousands of years. The forms symbolise generations of connection to Country\, the impacts of colonisation and the survival and revival of Indigenous languages and native food sources.

SUMMARY:Ara Dolatian: In Between Forms
DESCRIPTION:THIS IS NO FANTASY presents In Between Forms\, the first solo exhibition by Ara Dolatian since joining the gallery. The exhibition explores unstable states between human\, animal and the monstrous\, drawing on Mesopotamian female deities\, queens and poetic traditions — particularly the voice of Enheduanna and The Exaltation of Inanna. Through sculpture\, Dolatian reimagines ancient acts of invocation as contemporary forms of transformation. \nInfluenced by feminist and queer readings of Mesopotamian history\, the works consider the body as fluid\, relational and continually shifting across gender\, species and time. Horned figures\, inspired by ancient symbols of divinity\, emerge as sacred yet otherworldly presences\, resisting fixed identity and patriarchal systems of power. \nPresented in a restrained palette of white and gold\, the sculptures oscillate between archaeological relic and living body\, holding tension between ruin and elevation\, absence and presence\, while transformation remains ongoing and unresolved.
