A season of contemporary Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander public art works.

This year the Laneway Commissions will celebrate the creativity and excellence of Melbourne’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists.

Having received no applications from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists in the history of the program, Laneway Commissions 2011 is dedicated to showcasing artists from these communities, placing their art and culture firmly in the public realm.

Six projects have been commissioned that traverse a variety of perspectives, stories and art forms, providing a rich cultural framework through which to view Melbourne’s contemporary urban landscape. Spread over ten different locations, Laneway Commissions 2011 is the most extensive exhibition of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander public art in Victoria.

The 2011 season runs from 28 September 2011 to 25 March 2012.
