National Gallery of Australia, Canberra, ACT
Description

The 1968 exhibition was curated in 1995 by Michael Desmond and Christine Dixon and was drawn entirely from the National Gallery of Australia’s collection.
It celebrates the time of change, in the two years on either side of 1968 – a time of political and social unrest, when art and life combined to stretch barriers.
The exhibition integrated both popular and avant garde works from Australian artists, designers and news photographers with those from the USA and UK. The resulting exhibition showed the energy and strength of the young Australian artists of this generation.
