Arts Minister Tony Burke made some remarks earlier this week about Creative Australia’s decision to ditch Lebanese Australian artist Khaled Sabsabi as the pick for the 61st Venice Biennale.

They didn’t get much coverage but I can’t get them out of my head.

So here you go.

The decision to rescind Sabsabi & Dagostino's invitation to Venice "was made in good faith", AND it violated a member of the board's core values? There is a dissonance here that points to deep and unsettling interference that violates everything Creative Australia should stand for.

Had the joy of working on this with Delaine Le Bas for the past few months - as we approach 2025, keep your dance card free for a visit to Dagenham for a new exhibition of work, co-created with and for Roma & Traveller communities… createlondon.org/event/atchin...
