Julius von Bismarck's first Australian solo exhibition, "This is not the storm," opens at the Australian Centre for Contemporary Art (ACCA) in Melbourne on Friday, 17 April. The Berlin-based artist blends art, science, and environmental themes to challenge conventional perceptions of nature as a social construct.
The exhibition matters because it introduces von Bismarck's ambitious, interdisciplinary practice to Australian audiences, positioning him as one of today's most significant artists working at the intersection of art and ecology. It contributes to ongoing conversations about how we define and experience nature in an era of environmental crisis.
