The Biennale of Sydney has named Low Kee Hong as the artistic director for its 26th edition. The appointment sets the direction for the next installment of the major contemporary art exhibition, which is scheduled to take place in 2028.
According to the announcement, the 2028 Biennale of Sydney will be presented in and around the city. The event is one of Australia’s best-known recurring art exhibitions, and the naming of an artistic director is a key step in shaping its curatorial vision and overall program.
The news also places Low Kee Hong at the center of preparations for the next edition following this year’s Biennale, which was directed by Hoor Al Qasimi. That connection highlights the transition from the current edition to long-range planning for the 2028 exhibition.
With the 26th edition still some time away, the appointment signals the Biennale of Sydney’s early focus on building its next chapter. More details about the exhibition’s theme, participating artists, and program are expected closer to the event.
