Between the Details: Video Art from the ACMI Collection

Exhibition Dates: 6 December 2024 – 23 February 2025
Pinnacles Gallery

Showcasing six moving image artworks by Australian artists, this exhibition celebrates ACMI's vibrant collecting and commissioning program.

Working in video offers artists the opportunity to use editing as their primary technique; mixing and matching elements from other films or their own work to tell new stories. By remixing or rearranging footage they build different rhythms and moods, create hilarious juxtapositions or shed new light on cultural cliches and presumed histories. The works in this exhibition all demonstrate an irrepressible desire to bring deep themes to the surface with humour and an incredible attention to detail.

Christian Thompson’s immersive 360 degree moving image and sound experience, Bayi Gardiya (Singing Desert), will be available through VR Headsets on Saturdays 10am – 12pm during the exhibition.
