Bushfire Brandalism
“As a collective group of Australian artists, we have been driven to reclaim public advertising space with posters speaking to the Australian government’s inaction on climate change and the devastating bushfires.
We do not accept that this situation is ‘ business as usual’. We are making these issues visible in our public spaces and in our media; areas monopolized by entities maintaining conservative climate denial agendas.
If the newspapers won’t print the story, we will!”



These works, amongst a set of 41 posters contributed were acquired by the National Gallery of Victoria for its permanent collection.
Benalla Art Gallery will present a Bushfire Brandlism exhibition from 5 March to 25 April 2021.
