Australia Season
Shame-faced Australians tired of reiterating that there's more to their country than Nicole Kidman and kangaroos should direct friends and naysayers alike to the Australia Season at London's British Museum. Two detailed exhibitions and an Australian-themed garden are its focus.
For the season's duration the forecourt of the British Museum will showcase the splendour of Australia's natural habitat with Australia Landscape, featuring an outdoor installation designed in collaboration with Kew Gardens.
Running from May to September, Out of Australia: prints and drawings from Sidney Nolan to Rover Thomas
delves into recent developments in Australian artistic practice,
featuring works from the Australian artistic collective the 'Angry
Penguins', while Baskets and belonging: Indigenous Australian histories
(May-August) traces indigenous Australian cultures through the
beautifully finished baskets crafted by different tribes throughout the
country.
When: 21 Apr - 16 Oct 2011
