Symposium
Failure in the Guise of Success for Painting and the Curatorial at University of the Arts London, March 2025
Leading with the Emily Kam Kngwarray exhibition at National Gallery of Australia 2024 and Tate Modern London 2025, I questioned:
Will Kngwarray’s work be shown in the context, not only in which it was made, but as part of the legacy of experience, protest, and reasonable demands for redemption and equality, asserted by First Nations artists and curators today? And will First Nations Australian curators Kelli Cole and Hetti Perkins facilitate a force that helps to make space for the complexity of multiple canons?
