Macquarie Group and National Museum of Australia launch Warrane exhibition
Macquarie Group is hosting a new exhibition in its Martin Place office, curated by the National Museum of Australia in collaboration with Indigenous strategy and design agency Balarinji. The exhibition, Warrane, is centred around the idea of place, exploring Gadigal custodianship of Country and the influence that Lachlan and Elizabeth Macquarie had on the physical shape and identity of Sydney. Macquarie’s 50 Martin Place office is located on Gadigal Country and Warrane is the Sydney language word for Sydney Cove.
While acknowledging the negative effects of British occupation on Aboriginal people in Sydney, Warrane focuses on the agency and resilience of Aboriginal people in the area by exploring Gadigal connection to and Custodianship of Country.
