London | Contemporary Art from Asia-Pacific
From 16 May 2026 to 10 January 2027, V&A South Kensington, London, will host the exhibition ‘Rising Voices: Contemporary Art from Asia, Australia and the Pacific’.
A landmark collaboration between the V&A and the Queensland Art Gallery | Gallery of Modern Art (QAGOMA), Brisbane, the ‘Rising Voices’ exhibition will offer a view of the Asia Pacific region’s creative landscape. Foregrounding First Nations perspectives and diverse artistic approaches, the exhibition will feature rare works by over 40 creatives.
Across geographies and communities, and reflecting on a changing relationship with the past, Rising Voices reveals both diversity and commonality in art-making across the region, marking a pivotal moment in the dialogue between the local and the international that the Asia Pacific Triennial has championed for over three decades.
The exhibition draws on the Triennial’s legacy, arranged across an introduction and three thematic sections:
- Re-Visioning History
- Enduring Knowledge
- Evolving Faith
