Primavera, the MCA’s annual exhibition of ​emerging Australian artists aged 35 years and under, has announced this year’s seven artists.

Although six of the seven artists live in Sydney or Melbourne, their range of cultural links is varied with a strong thematic emphasis on cultural survival and revival, through the cultures of Indigenous, migrant and minority Australians.
