NOW OPEN | HOT TROPICS, NATIONAL GALLERY OF AUSTRALIA, CANBERRA
From 11 October 2025 to 8 February 2026, the National Gallery of Australia presents Hot Tropics, an exhibition that brings together works by First Nations artists who live in, or are connected to, the tropic and subtropical zones of Australia—an area encompassing Western Australia, the Northern Territory and Queensland, inclusive of Zenadth Kes/Torres Strait Islands.
Drawn from the national collection, these works tender a tropical imaginary where water is a connective element that gives and sustains life. In works whose perspectives are filtered through water’s many aqueous lenses, artists explore their ecological, cultural and spiritual connections to place, climate and each other, to speak of water’s sacred and secular importance.
