Exterior of the Contemporary Art Centre of South Australia in Adelaide

Curatorial 2010 & earlier

Earlier Curatorial Projects

This section archives a selection of my projects at the Contemporary Art Centre of South Australia (CACSA), Adelaide. The CACSA exhibition program presented local, national and international artists with a focus on Southeast Asia.

CACSA began as the Contemporary Art Society, established in 1942 by a breakaway group of young artists seeking greater opportunities to exhibit their work. Poet, critic, publisher and bookseller Max Harris was a key early figure. It published the quarterly journal Broadsheet from 1954 and was dissolved in 2016.

As further material is located, documentation of selected early curatorial projects will be added to this section.
