Product Info

— What You Can Expect —

Step into Avatar: Forms of Vishnu, an internationally curated art exhibition that explores centuries of storytelling from South and Southeast Asia. Centered on Vishnu—the Hindu deity symbolising preservation and cosmic balance—the exhibition reveals how the concept of “avatars” represents divine forms descending to earth to restore harmony when order is threatened.

Discover a rich collection of sculptures, paintings, textiles, and photography that bring Vishnu’s legendary avatars to life, from Matsya the fish and Kurma the tortoise to Krishna, Prince Rāma, and Kalki, the future symbol of renewal. Each piece offers a unique perspective on how artists across generations have interpreted these timeless narratives.

Featuring rare works loaned from renowned collections across Australia, India, Cambodia, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom, this immersive exhibition invites you into a visually striking journey of devotion, mythology, and cultural heritage—accompanied by insightful scholarly perspectives in a beautifully curated publication.
