The Museum of Contemporary Art Australia is opening up its doors and giving patrons free and open access to all of its exhibitions. A further attraction is that there is no need to book. Just roll up.
Current exhibitions :
Australian artist Nell’s bold, site specific sculptural work HOLDING BOTH, which stands on the MCA’s Level 4 Terrace. This exhibition honours the power and presence of women.
Cherine Fahd’s THE CAPTAINS. This is the inaugural Harvey Norman Art Commission and it brings the leaders of the 2026 National Women’s Rugby League teams off the football field and in to the gallery.
Tony Albert’s NOT A SOUVENIR. Albert’s exhibition presents a powerful, optimistic story of indigenous survival and cultural pride.
Hany Amanious’ exhibition THE PLANETS displays meticulously crafted replicas of everyday objects, inviting us to look more closely at the future.
Patrons can also view Al Weiwei’s new sculpture exhibition MUSHROOMS, created for the MCA’s Neil Balnaves Tallawoladah Lawn Commission. The exhibition is a meditation on the fragility of life at a time of increasing division.
The Museum Of Contemporary Art Australia is open every day apart from Monday between 10am and 5pm.
