MAMA, the Murray Arts Museum Albury, together with its shop and eatery, has quietly reopened with a modified exhibition program and additional safety measures in place. A highlight is Andrew Liversidge’s site-specific installation, “Those So-Called Infinite Horizons”, which repurposes MAMA’s advertising billboards as a canvas for an artwork that questions the current economic system. At 546 Dean Street, Albury NSW. Information at mamalbury.com.au
