Artists announced for Aichi Triennale 2025, with Robert Andrew, Yasmin Smith and more

All three Australian artists selected for Aichi Triennale 2025 have shared history with the Biennale of Sydney.

Australian artists Robert Andrew, Wendy Hubert and Yasmin Smith are among the list of international artists selected for the Aichi Triennale 2025, led by Artistic Director Hoor Al Qasimi, who is the incoming curator for the 25th Biennale of Sydney next year.

A descendant of the Yawuru people, Andrew’s works often bring the material aspects of Country into institutional spaces, forging connections to and acknowledgement of the land we are upon. His kinetic installation for the 2020 Macfarlance Commissions was a powerful and poetic piece, where Yawuru words were abstractly imprinted onto the walls of the Australian Centre for Contemporary Art (ACCA) with charcoal branches salvaged after a bushfire.
