Join us for the launch of Djon Mundine: Windows & Mirrors, a landmark publication celebrating the writings of one of Australia’s most influential cultural figures.
Across nearly three decades of essays, critiques, and reflections, Mundine charts the shifting landscape of contemporary art and the central place of Indigenous voices within it. This richly illustrated volume gathers his words from 1999 to the present, offering both a window into his enduring practice and a mirror held to the nation’s cultural history.

About the Book
Windows & Mirrors is the first comprehensive volume to chart Mundine’s career as a writer and thinker, including texts written for major exhibitions and institutions across Australia and abroad, illustrated with archival images and documentation.
