A trio of finger-painting robotic dogs will share star billing with conceptual artist Yoko Ono, iconic fashion house Schiaparelli and British art heavyweight Tracey Emin in the third iteration of NGV Triennial, the National Gallery of Victoria's behemoth exhibition of contemporary international art and design, opening in December.

Featuring more than 100 artists, and free to the public, the exhibition will take over the entire NGV International building — including the facade, which will feature a large text-based work by Ono, in the form of a question for Melburnians.
