A wish for 2020 to be a year of new funds to artists, independent galleries and emerging creatives all over Australia.

Contemporary Art expert, Andrea Candiani, flies to Adelaide to present some of the projects on display at the Art Gallery of South Australia: from Tarnanthi, an exhibition featuring several Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists to the show "No god but God: The art of Islam", the Gallery’s first major display of Islamic art to encompass a geographical span extending from Morocco to Australia.

In conclusion of a year that has not been very generous for the sector, the director of blackartprojects hopes that in 2020 new funding will be given to Australian artists, independent galleries and emerging creatives.
