Canvas: Unframing Art & Ideas

The Evolution of First Nations Representation On and Off Stage with Beau James


Listen Later

Curator, producer and performer Beau James joins host Ayeesha Ash to reflect upon their time in the arts industry so far, share some advice they’d give to their younger self and consider the way things have or haven’t changed during their time in the arts industry. We also hear about two works they have curated as Head of First Nations Programming at the Sydney Opera House; Rodney Bell Ngāti Maniapoto’s ‘Meremere’ and photographic exhibition ‘Always Here - 50 Years of Black Theatre’ inspired by the National Black Theatre in Redfern and the activism and stories of those who were instrumental to its establishment.
