HERE&NOW20
29 August - 5 December 2020
HERE&NOW20: Perfectly Queer focuses on the practice of queer artists in Western Australia.
Curated by Brent Harrison, the exhibition examines how artists draw on histories and their own lived experiences to create artworks that reflect on what it means to be queer.
It features new work by artists Benjamin Bannan, Nathan Beard, Janet Carter, Lill Colgan, Jo Darbyshire, Brontë Jones, Andrew Nicholls and Colin Smith.
HERE&NOW20: Perfectly Queer has been supported by the State Government of Western Australia through the Department of Local Government, Sport and Culture Industries and by the Australian Government through the Australia Council, its arts funding and advisory body.
