The Western Front Exhibitions Programme presents contemporary art by local, national, and international artists. Intentionally open, this mandate promotes experimentation with conceptual models and contexts for visual art and has allowed the program to expand beyond gallery exhibitions to include poster and book publications, cross-disciplinary works, and site-specific projects.
