- Summary:
- "An exhibition comprising Australian artists of multi-ethnic origins and backgrounds, Rose Crossing is inspired by The Rose Crossing by the Australian author Nicholas Jose on the subject of a hybrid rose which becomes a symbol of cross-cultural exchange. The interest in Asian culture and the transformation in Australian life as a result of increasing Asian immigration as well as the iniquities of past centuries and the changing attitudes in our time all form the basis for the exhibition. As artists are often the first to respond, this exhibition looks at the transformations that are occurring as a result of these influences. Artists in the exhibition include Louise Hearman, Michael Johnson, Felicia Kan, John Olsen, Time Storrier, John Wolseley, Hossein Valamanesh, Imants Tillers, Guan Wei and John Young."--SAM press release.
