The beauty of distance: Songs of Survival in a Precarious Age presents more than 440 works by 166 artists and collaborators from 36 countries – including new works by 67 artists created especially for Sydney. Exhibiting works in seven venues by established and emerging artists from all over the world offers visitors an experience that challenges preconceived notions about the art of today. In this edition, more Australian artists than ever before exhibit alongside their international peers.' - from the catalogue

'This exhibition looks at a world undergoing fundamental change. Ever since the late 1700s, the power of the West has dominated the culture of this planet but it is now being seriously contested. Although we are not yet sure what will come in its place, with the distance of hindsight we are better able to understand the dark as well as the good sides of the European Enlightenment.' - David Elliott, Artistic Director of the 17th Biennale of Sydney
