THE 80s ARE BACK

Launching in December 2009, THE 80s ARE BACK will be a premier exhibition at the Powerhouse Museum.

THE 80s ARE BACK will explore Australian life and popular culture in the 1980s, remembering the styles, trends and subcultures, and how they found expression in fashion, design, music, film and television.

THE 80s ARE BACK exhibition will look back at how we spent our leisure time, the music we listened to, the clothes we wore, and the experiences we had. It will also explore the recent revival of 1980s style, as a new generation looks to the decade for inspiration in fashion and music.

Drawing on the Powerhouse Museum’s collection and complemented by signature items borrowed from collectors and entertainers, the exhibition will revisit the era’s toys and fads, video games and technology, architecture and design trends, parties, nightclubs and live music.
