A major survey of renowned Australian-Chinese contemporary artist, Lindy Lee, will open at the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia on 2 October with the support of the NSW Government.

Minister for Jobs, Investment, Tourism and Western Sydney Stuart Ayres said it’s a fantastic opportunity to get out and enjoy Sydney while taking in globally recognised Australian art and helping to rebuild the visitor economy.

“This year has presented many challenges, particularly to those in the arts and tourism industries,” Mr Ayres said.

“We are delighted that the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia will bring together over 70 works from across four decades of Lindy Lee’s practice, which is expected to attract thousands of people who contribute to Sydney’s visitor economy.”

Minister for the Arts Don Harwin said Lindy Lee: Moon in a Dew Drop further reinforces Sydney’s reputation as a leading cultural destination.

“While we would normally be showcasing the Sydney International Art Series over the summer months, the COVID-19 pandemic has forced our esteemed cultural institutions to reimagine their summer exhibitions. We’re thrilled to be able to support a major exhibition of this calibre.” Mr Harwin said.
