'Tony Albert is one of Australia's great living artists'
Suzanne Cotter, Director of the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia

Tony Albert's art reclaims and reframes the imagery of Aboriginal Australia with wit, beauty and force. Across painting, photography, sculpture and installation, his practice explores Aboriginal culture, identity and history through a deeply personal lens. Drawing on individual and collective pasts, Albert transforms the visual language of colonisation - turning objects of prejudice into symbols of resistance, resilience and pride.

Tony Albert: Not a Souvenir is the most comprehensive publication on the artist to date, tracing his journey as one of Australia's most incisive contemporary voices. Across themes of past, present and future, the book unpacks the many critical questions raised in Albert's work: how do we remember, give justice to and rewrite complex and traumatic histories?

Edited by Liz Nowell with essays by leading curators and writers and designed with bold, graphic flair, this volume illuminates an extraordinary creative practice and affirms Tony Albert as a vital force in Australia's ongoing story of truth telling and cultural renewal.
