To Dec 14 Hoda Afshar: A Curve is a Broken Line – the first major solo exhibition by one of Australia’s most innovative and unflinching photomedia artists. Through her photographs and moving image works, Iranian-born, Melbourne-based Hoda Afshar examines the politics of image-making. Deeply researched yet emotionally sensitive, her work can be seen as a form of activism as much as an artistic inquiry. Hoda Afshar: A Curve is a Broken Line is an Art Gallery of New South Wales touring exhibition.

To Dec 14 Vibrant Matter – Simone Slee, Susan Jacobs and Ross Manning. Bringing together works from the UQ Collection and beyond, this exhibition is attentive to the agency of materials and to the vibrancy of matter. The artists included in Vibrant Matter have co-produced their work with material components of drawing, sculpture, and sound art. Welcoming the active participation of these more-than-human materials and beings, the works move away from notions of the singular intention of authorship and instead actively co-create.

Spanning painting, photography, sculptural objects and moving image, artists explore ideas of national identity and nationhood, and how these concepts are defended and maintained, resisted and subverted.

Nov 29 to March 9, 2025 Yucky Yum Yum.
Do you find joy eating food in fake rainbow colours, even though it might be bad for you? Do you like watching videos of objects being squished, or even people popping pimples? Even if you answered “no” to all the above, you would know that some things can be both delicious and disgusting at the same time. Or they can be funny and sad. Sometimes we actually desire things because they are scary or dangerous. The artists in this exhibition have made works that you might find both yucky and yum. Hopefully, the art sparks your senses. It may ignite your emotions and memories too. Many of the works in this exhibition are connected by themes around food, nature and the “unnatural,” disgust and taboo. These themes have complex and challenging histories, presents and futures. The artists don’t shy away from tough subjects, but their works are also filled with fun and irreverence. Yucky Yum Yum will be packed with new, artist-designed activities to keep you entertained and engaged over the long summer months. Just don’t eat ice-cream off the pavement. Featuring Ebony Russell, Elizabeth Willing, Hotham Street Ladies, Jan Hynes, Kenny Pittock, Lisa Ashcroft, Smac McCreanor and more. A Townsville City Galleries exhibition.

Dec 6 to Feb 23, 2025 Between [the] Details.
Showcasing six moving image artworks by Australian artists, this exhibition celebrates ACMI’s vibrant collecting and commissioning program. Working in video offers artists the opportunity to use editing as their primary technique; mixing and matching elements from other films or their own work to tell new stories. By remixing or rearranging footage they build different rhythms and moods, create hilarious juxtapositions or shed new light on cultural cliches and presumed histories. The works in this exhibition all demonstrate an irrepressible desire to bring deep themes to the surface with humour and an incredible attention to detail. An ACMI touring exhibition.

To Sept 20, 2026 National Interests: Australian Art in the 20th Century.
This exhibition explores the cultural legacy of Australian Modernism in the 20th century, pairing artworks from the Hervey Bay Regional Gallery Art Collection with significant works from Australia’s national collection. Featuring works made from 1936 to 1997, each grouping of works of art acts as an entry point into a thread of Australian art history. Considered together, the works in National Interests paint a picture of Australia’s search for a national identity in a rapidly changing cultural landscape. National Interests includes works on long-term loan from the National Gallery of Australia with support from the Australian Government as part of Sharing the National Collection.
Nov 30 to Feb 16, 2025 Mia Boe: Guwinganj.
Mia Boe is a Melbourne-based painter from Brisbane with Butchulla and Burmese ancestry. Her work is influenced by the inheritance and “disinheritance” of these two cultures, often responding to the British Empire’s deliberate and violent interferences with the cultural heritages of Burma/Myanmar and K’gari. Through her unique depiction of elongated figures and stylised landscapes, Boe records and recovers Indigenous histories in a contemporary context, fusing the personal and historical. Boe’s solo exhibition has been developed on Butchulla Country as the recipient of the 2024 Fiona Foley residency.

Nov 30 to Feb 16, 2025 Picturing the End.
Depictions and predictions of civilisational collapse, looming planetary limits and existential threats reverberate through contemporary culture. While the cause and appropriate response to these apocalyptic visions may be a point of debate across the political spectrum, the assurance of mass human suffering just around the corner has popular appeal. As “the End” of humanity flashes across our screens, what can we learn about ourselves and our public cultures by examining these narratives? Bringing together works from significant Australian artists Tiyan Baker, Joseph Breikers, Michael Cook, Kinly Grey, Guy Louden, Dana Lawrie, Tracey Moffatt, Grant Stevens, and more, Picturing the End reflects on how our relationship with our own mortality intersects with narratives of humanity’s downfall.
