Artists in Focus is a changing presentation of works from the MCA Collection.

Each room in the exhibition is dedicated to a different artist or community, showcasing Collection highlights alongside recent acquisitions and works that have never previously been displayed.

The MCA is the only public museum in Australia solely dedicated to collecting contemporary art. As such, it offers a unique perspective on the evolution of contemporary art in Australia. Representing the varied materials, concerns and approaches that underpin this history, Artists in Focus creates new dialogues across generations and lineages, offering diverse insights into art and life since acquisitions began in 1989.
