Midwinter Masters 2013: (What’s so funny ‘bout) peace, love & understanding…?

‘(What’s so funny ‘bout) peace, love & understanding…?’ showcases the work of a diverse group of significant 20th century and contemporary artists, whose practices engage with the theme of social commentary. Whether openly critical of the status quo, or silently bearing witness, these artists’ works create a record of the struggles often suppressed or ignored by pervading attitudes in Australian society.

With subjects ranging from historical events to everyday activities, this exhibition seeks to highlight the artist’s role in analysing and reporting upon the political, social and environmental concerns of the times.
