QUEENIE MCKENZIE: Know Her

Sydney Contemporary
5 – 8 September 2024

Upcoming exhibition

A Secondary Eye is pleased to announce its return to Sydney Contemporary for the third year. Following last year’s solo presentation of Bardi artist Roy Wiggan, and our more recent exhibition of Rover Thomas’ work in Sydney, we are excited to announce an exhibition of another important artist from the Kimberley: Queenie Nakarra McKenzie. As a fellow painter and close friend of Rover Thomas, Queenie’s work has long been overshadowed by her more famous peers – but her unique aesthetic and chromatic sensibilities deserve more recognition.
