ABOUT
The most comprehensive telling of our country’s story through art, Connection brings together First Peoples’ art, music and culture in an immersive new experience fusing the world’s oldest culture with the most cutting-edge technology.
Opening June 23, Connection features over 550 digital and original artworks from more than 110 visual and musical artists, representing the largest collection of First Peoples’ art ever assembled.
Developed in collaboration with the National Museum of Australia and featuring artists including Emily Kame Kngwarreye, Tommy Watson, Sarrita King, Kate Constantine, Yothu Yindi, Baker Boy, Gurrumul and more, Connection is a ground-breaking showcase for both the magnitude of its physical space and the number of works it includes.
We acknowledge the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung and Bunurong Boon Wurrung peoples as the Traditional Owners of the land on which THE LUME Melbourne is built. We recognise their continuous connection to culture, community and Country.
This website contains names, images and voices of deceased Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
