Experience Julie Rrap: Past Continuous exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia.

Julie Rrap has been a major figure in Australian contemporary art for over 40 years. Through photography, video, performance, sculpture and drawing, Rrap examines representations of the body in art and popular culture over time.

Julie Rrap: Past Continuous features the artist’s landmark installation Disclosures: A Photographic Construct (1982) from the MCA Collection, as well as new and recent works using the artist’s body 42 years later. Since Disclosures, Rrap has used the camera as a powerful feminist tool to give agency to the model (often herself) as both the object and subject of her works.

Events In Sydney acknowledges and respects Aboriginal people as the state’s first people and nations and recognises Aboriginal people as the Traditional Owners and occupants of New South Wales land and water.
