How do we make and remake meaning, what roles do objects play in this and what is the responsibility of museums in redressing gaps in common historical narratives through their collections? Erik Jensen, host of NGV Triennial with 7am, and the NGV’s Pip Wallis, Curator of Contemporary Art, consider these questions as they explore Level 2 of NGV Triennial 2020 and discuss works by Lee Ufan, Kengo Kuma and Geoff Nees, Angela Tiatia, Fred Wilson and Faye Toogood.
