A landmark artwork that received acclaim and an award at the Venice Biennale has been acquired by both England’s Tate museum network and South Brisbane’s Queensland Art Gallery.

Archie Moore’s kith and kin (2024), an installation currently exhibited at the Golden Lion–winning Australian Pavilion, has been jointly acquired by these two institutions, meaning they will share ownership of the work.

After the Venice Biennale concludes in November, the piece will be displayed at the Queensland Art Gallery | Gallery of Modern Art, where it will remain on view through 2026. The artwork features a collection of documents stacked above a low reflecting pool. These documents, some of which are partially redacted, pertain to First Nations people who died in custody. Additionally, Moore, who is of Kamilaroi and Bigambul descent, has traced his family’s 65,000-year lineage on the pavilion’s walls and ceiling.
