Artspace’s acclaimed '52 ACTIONS' continues its national tour at Redcliffe Art Gallery, featuring works from 52 Australian artists and collectives from each state and territory. As the title suggests, '52 ACTIONS' is grounded in art as action.
Guided by the local, the artists’ actions speak to critical global concerns including systemic discrimination, climate change, forced migration and colonial legacies. Notions of freedom are ever present, as are First Nations’ perspectives, the importance of family and community, and speculations about our shared future.
The exhibition has evolved from Artspace’s online commissioning platform of the same name, which from 2020 to 2021 presented new works each week by the 52 participants on Artspace’s website and Instagram.
In close collaboration with Artspace, City of Moreton Bay brings together a selection of these works and others in an adaptive, site specific exhibition that is responsive to our unique context.
