Adelaide International (art exhibition)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Adelaide International was a biennial art exhibition held in at the Samstag Museum of Art in Adelaide, South Australia, in partnership with the Adelaide Festival of the Arts, from 2010 to 2014. The series featured a range of contemporary visual works from artists based outside Australia. After a pause in the partnership was agreed, the exhibition was revived by the Samstag in 2019 as a series of three annual events, with the new title Adelaide//International, with a different context and concept: the 2019 exhibition was about the effect of colonisation on indigenous culture.

History 2019–2021: Adelaide//International

[edit]

In 2019, as a continuation of the Adelaide International, but differing in concept and without the partnership of the Festival, the Samstag started a new cycle of three consecutive "Adelaide//International" exhibitions, for the 2019, 2020 and 2021 Adelaide Festivals.[16]

2019

[edit]

The 2019 Adelaide//International featured the work of four artists: Brook Andrew and Eugenia Lim from Australia, Lisa Reihana from New Zealand, and Ming Wong from Singapore, exploring the effect of colonisation on indigenous culture.[16]

2020

[edit]

The 2020 exhibition centred around an installation called Somewhere Other by John Wardle Architects in collaboration with Natasha Johns-Messenger. It was Australia's entry in the 2018 Venice Architecture Biennale. It also features work by Belgian artist David Claerbout, Brad Darkson, Zoë Croggon, Helen Grogan and Georgia Saxelby.[17] Due to run from 28 February to 12 June,[18] the exhibition was cut short by the closure of the Samstag in March 2020 owing to the COVID-19 pandemic in Australia.[19]
