澳大利亚艺术家托尼·阿尔伯特在悉尼当代美术馆举办大型个人展览《不是纪念品》，展出超过4500件物品，包括具有刻板印象和种族歧视特征的澳大利亚原住民主题商品。1这些被称为"Aboriginalia"的物品来自阿尔伯特本人40年的收藏，以及通过公众征集获得的超过400件新捐赠物品，目前每周仍有新的捐赠包裹到达。1
阿尔伯特自6岁起就开始收集这类物品。1他表示："这从未是关于让人们感到内疚，而是把这些物品改造成庆祝世界上最古老的活文化的东西。"1作为Girramay、Yidindji和Kuku Yalanji人，阿尔伯特通过这场展览将被污名化的物品改造成艺术作品，重新讨论原住民生存、和解与文化自豪感的问题。1展览将持续至10月19日。1
Australian artist Tony Albert has opened a major solo exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Sydney, presenting over 4,500 objects collected and transformed into art 1. The show, titled "Not a Souvenir," features Aboriginalia—mass-produced merchandise bearing stereotypical and racially derogatory depictions of Aboriginal Australians 1. Albert, who is Girramay, Yidindji, and Kuku Yalanji, has been collecting these items since age six, accumulating them over 40 years 1.
The exhibition draws significantly from public participation, with over 400 new objects donated by visitors, and new packages continuing to arrive weekly 1. By reconfiguring these stigmatized commodities into artworks, Albert engages pressing questions around Indigenous survival, reconciliation, and cultural pride 1. He explained his approach, stating: "This has never been about making people feel guilty, but transforming these objects into something that celebrates the oldest living culture in the world" 1. The exhibition runs through October 19 1.
