Caught up with Vernon Ah Kee, Artist and Simon Elliott, Deputy Director of Queensland Art Gallery and also Art Atrium artist Pamela See on a recent trip to Brisbane. Great to see Archie Moore’s exhibition from Venice Biennale two years ago on display at GOMA and it will travel to MCA next year. Very excited about a project I am initiating with Jack Manning Bancroft, Founder of AIME, with senior First Nations artists mentoring emerging First Nations artists and to have Vernon Ah Kee, Richard Bell and Blak Douglas participating as mentors. Also looking forward to organising an exhibition of First Nations artists with Chinese heritage next year with Vernon Ah Kee participating.
