"I think this cross-section of practices, in a sense, describes the landscape of contemporary art – which means, rather than an Australian-ness of the work I see here, the key for me is the specific individual artist's own language"
"I'm excited about Australia on two levels – first of course, Fiona's work. We met and had a discussion of what she might be working on, but she was a bit cagey about it! Which is normal – it needs to be surprising," says Enwezor. "Second is the new pavilion. This is very exciting – it will be the first contemporary architecture in the Giardini since the South Korean pavilion. I'm looking forward to it. It's a very important milestone for Australia's presence in the Biennale."
