Brook Andrew (born in 1970 in Sydney, Australia) is a Wiradjuri and Ngunnawal artist whose interdisciplinary practices span museum, public art, and mixed mediums. Deeply rooted in his Wiradjuri heritage, honoring his grandmother’s Country in Western New South Wales, Australia, he draws on the aboriginal traditions of mark-making and language to critically engage with the ongoing legacies of colonialism and power structures associated with our contemporary society.
His recent exhibitions include Artist, Activist, Archivist, at Fondation Opale, Lens (2024), the Sharjah Biennial (2023), No Feeling is Final: Skopje Solidarity Collection, at Kunsthalle Wien, Vienna (2023), Liverpool Biennial 2023 and Yoyi! Care Repair Heal, Gropius Bau, Berlin (2022-23). Brook Andrew is also the director Reimagining Museums and Collections at the University of Melbourne. He is represented by Tolarno Galleries, Melbourne, Ames Yavuz Gallery, Sydney/Singapore/London, and Galerie Nathalie Obadia, Paris/Brussels. Image : Brook Andrew Photo © Joy Gregory |
