The exhibition features a mix of entries from over 40 international practitioners, including renowned designers, students and emerging artists. The Melbourne exhibition was arranged in collaboration with RMIT and the London College of Communication.

New Views 2 runs until 15 February 2009 at the Melbourne Museum.
