Importantly, it lets the artists speak from within their own practices rather than reducing the work to a single curatorial thesis. Artists include Tony Albert, Brook Andrew, Megan Cope, Blak Douglas, Julie Gough, Dale Harding, Archie Moore, Judy Watson, Yhonnie Scarce and others, across photography, sculpture, installation, painting, weaving, print, glass and new media. The recurring questions are about who gets to name history, who gets to occupy space visibly, and how art can operate as record, counter-history and assertion of presence. Substantial, highly illustrated, and much more than exhibition ephemera. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNational Gallery of Australia, Canberra, 2017.
