Richard talks to Annika Kristensen, the Senior Curator of The Australian Centre for Contemporary Art (ACCA) about a call-out to artists to submit proposals for the creation of new digital works. Kristensen says that the challenges of this time present an opportunity for ACCA to fulfil their mission statement which is to “do art differently”. 

Sarah Lyons, the Senior Education and Audience Engagement Officer at Bunjil Place Gallery joins Richard to discuss their digital programs through #ArtsInIsolation. Lyons says that this is an exciting time to trial a new way of doing things and hopes that they take these new practices into the future.

Finally Richard talks with Michael Fitzgerald, the Editor of Art Monthly Australiasia, a visual arts magazine that lost funding in the last Australia Council grants round. Fitzgerald says “it means basically we’re having to do what we’ve always done which is to be creative, entrepreneurial, and pulling rabbits out of the hat”
