This is the fourth edition of a biennial survey of contemporary Australian art, showcasing work made across the country by artists of different generations and cultural backgrounds.
The National 4 is a partnership between four of Sydney’s leading cultural institutions: the Art Gallery of New South Wales, Campbelltown Arts Centre, Carriageworks and the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia.
Staged concurrently at the four venues, the 2023 edition is curated by Beatrice Gralton at the Art Gallery of New South Wales; Emily Rolfe at Campbelltown Arts Centre; Freja Carmichael and Aarna Fitzgerald Hanley at Carriageworks; and Jane Devery at the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia.
At the Art Gallery of New South Wales, works are displayed on the ground level and lower level 2 of our historic South Building as well as at the Brett Whiteley Studio in Surry Hills.
