The Venice Biennale is one of the world’s most prestigious exhibitions of contemporary art and a critical platform for countries to affirm their artistic identities. In recent years, it has attracted over 500,000 visitors. Australia’s representation began in 1954 and since then 39 distinguished Australian artists have exhibited there.

For Australia’s participation in 2007 and 2009, we were privileged to be selected by the Australia Council for the Arts for the provision of all related design services including the development of a visual identity for the Australian pavilion, signage, the production of a catalogue and a collectors’ bag for the vernissage.
