AAANZ 2025 conference: Unruly Objects | Early bird registration open

2025 AAANZ CONFERENCE | UNRULY OBJECTS

Wednesday 3 to Friday 5 December 2025, University of Western Australia, Perth

Hosted by The Lawrence Wilson Art Gallery, The Berndt Museum, and the UWA School of Design, and supported by the Institute of Advanced Studies.

The 2025 conference looks at the uncontrollable, excessive, surplus and unruly qualities of objects that we attempt to study, curate, discipline and subject to discourse. Thinking beyond simply the agency of objects, we turn specifically to their rowdy, disruptive, and ungovernable aspects – whether they be leaking out of unwieldy collections, unexhibitable or unthinkable, fugitive or lost, or brimming with vitality, power or ancestral subjectivity.

Early bird registration has opened, rates fro members are $350 full price and $130 concession. Tickets will be on sale until Sunday 26 October. See conference registration rates here.

Registration is complimentary for Aboriginal, Torres Strait Islander, Māori and Pasifika conference convenors and presenters. Registration closes Monday 24 November.
