The MCA's annual exhibition of exciting new work by Australian artists aged 35 and under. For Primavera 2026, curator Antares Wells brings together artists from across the country who open up new ways of working with history, memory and the archive. Spanning photography, film, installation, textiles and painting, the exhibition presents new work by Mark Maurangi Carrol, Stanton Cornish-Ward & Trent Crawford, Callum McGrath, Jahkarli Felicitas Romanis, Linda Sok, Jack Wansbrough and Rudi Williams. They approach the material and psychic traces of the past in diverse ways, including irreverent and experimental approaches to archival material, acts of obsession and reparation, and making art at the edges of memory. Since 1992, Primavera has featured the work of over 250 artists and launched the careers of many of Australia's most significant contemporary artists.
