The Queensland Art Gallery and the Gallery of Modern Art’s flagship exhibition focuses on the works of Asia, the Pacific, and Australia. Since 1993, the series has drawn more than 2.2 million visitors, aiming to develop one of the world’s most significant collections of contemporary Asian and Pacific art.

The eighth triennial emphasises the role of performance in art, with live action, video, kinetic art and figurative painting and sculpture. The works of more than 80 artists and collectives are presented, including the work by Indian artist Asim Waqif and South Korean artist Haegue Yang. There is also a cinema program and children’s program.
