Centre Five was a group of seven modernist sculptors formed in 19601/61 to raise awareness of, and change attitudes to, contemporary abstract sculpture in Australia amongst architects, state galleries and the public. These efforts involved exhibitions, lectures, and lobbying for a percent-for-the-arts program for public buildings, and fellowships for sculpture. Their foundational five-point program, from which the name Centre Five derives, stated their aim ‘to foster a closer relationship with architects." The group was active between 1958 to 1974.
