Discover the career of Bernhard Lüthi, a Swiss artist and curator, who has been a staunch advocate for the recognition of Aboriginal Art in Europe.
This exhibition highlights the career of Bernhard Lüthi, an artist and curator from Bern, who has been a staunch advocate for the recognition of Australian Aboriginal art in Europe.
At the heart of the exhibition ARTIST ACTIVIST ARCHIVIST lies Bernhard Lüthirsquo;s meticulously curated archive, a testament to four decades of dedication. Complementing this archive is a site-specific art installation by Wiradjuri artist Brook Andrew. The exhibition features a selection of Lüthirsquo;s own works, alongside works by artists who have played a key role in his career. These works critically engage with themes of colonialism, Eurocentrism, and racism that persist in both the visual arts and society at large, both in Australia and the Western world.
