Museums across Australia are staging shows with a range of themes this year, exploring our natural history and untold stories of the nation alongside spectacular permanent exhibitions and programs.
Ancient Greeks: Athletes, Warriors and Heroes explores competition through sport, politics, drama, music and warfare, illuminated by more than 170 objects from the British Museum and on view until 1 May. In the First Australians Focus Gallery, Inbetween: Cultural connections through design will be presented until 12 June, an immersive filmic experience reimagined from an exhibition in Australia’s pavilion at the 2021 Venice Biennale of Architecture. In development is the Great Southern Land Gallery due to open early 2022, marking the museum’s most significant redevelopment.
