Thea Baumann has been on the job as the new Artistic Director/CEO at 4A Centre for Contemporary Asian Art (4A) for just over a month. Described as a ‘creative executive, artist, technologist and producer with Vietnamese-Swiss heritage’, Baumann will undoubtedly bring a new perspective to the organisation as it approaches its third decade.
Bauman joins 4A from the Australia Council for the Arts, where she was Manager and Senior Manager of International Engagement from 2019-2022. Prior to that she was CEO and Founder of world-first hologram brand Metaverse Makeovers, 超宇美人 based between Melbourne, Shanghai and Hong Kong, where she led the commercialisation of augmented-reality innovation Metaverse Nails.
