Queer

The NGV will host the exhibition “Queer” the Australian-first exhibition that will explore the museum collection through a queer lens and mark the multiple stories that emerge.

Bringing together a breadth of artworks from antiquity to the present day, the exhibition will illustrate the forms in which queer lives and stories have been expressed in art through history, even the ones that might not have been visible in the past due to suppression, prejudice, or discrimination.

The works on display span many media, including painting, drawing, photography, decorative arts, fashion, textiles, video, sculpture, design, and architecture.
