In May 2026, the V&A will present Rising Voices: Contemporary Art from Asia, Australia and the Pacific, a landmark exhibition bringing together the work of more than 40 artists from 25 countries across the Asia Pacific region; a partnership with the Queensland Art Gallery | Gallery of Modern Art (QAGOMA) in Brisbane, the exhibition will draw on more than 30 years of QAGOMA's Asia Pacific Triennial of Contemporary Art, offering an unparalleled view of the region’s dynamic creative landscape; more than 70 works spanning sculpture, photography, painting, ceramics, weaving and body adornment—many of which have never been exhibited outside of the region—will foreground First Nations perspectives and reflect the interconnected, ever-changing cultures of the Asia Pacific today.
