Split over two exhibition periods and featuring artists from Australia and the Asia region, Last Words is a group exhibition that explores language, knowledge and communication in an age of cultural diversity and globalisation. It is the culmination of a series of mid-career solo exhibitions and performances, which 4A has undertaken throughout 2010 that tackle ideas of communication.
Last Words Exhibition Opening Event

Last Words selected artists and curator floor talks
Saturday 17 July 2pm
When we talk about our contemporary locations, they are increasingly defined by the interaction of local, national and global references. It is a world that is undergoing constant change and expansion, where culture, geography and traditional forms of identification are neither consistent nor certain. What happens when our boundaries - geographical, psychological, physical and cultural - dissolve? How, then do we articulate history, politics, where and how we live?
Last Words aims to set up a discourse around the ways in which meaning is constructed in a time of uncertainty, through artworks which act as a catalyst for reflection on the contemporary world.
A publication documenting the Last Words project will be available later in the year.
Artists in this exhibition include: Alfredo and Isabel Aquilizan, Eric Bridgeman, Zhang Ding, Hikaru Fujii, Archie Moore, Shen Shaomin.
