Robinson curated the 2004 Adelaide Biennial of Australian Art: Contemporary Photomedia. The arts critic for the South Pacific edition of Time, described it as a "powerful survey which goes to show that photography isn't dead".Michael Fitzgerald, "Not Dying, Changing" Time, 17 March 2004 [https://web.archive.org/web/20080609204657/http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,601805,00.html Time website] He noted that when Robinson curated her first photographic survey in 1990, "it was a more straightforward affair – pictures simply stared back at audiences" and went on to add, speaking of the Biennial, that "the 20 artists she has brought together in Adelaide explode the idea of what photography can be". Featured artists included Bill Henson, Tracey Moffatt, Mike Parr and Patricia Piccinini.Reid, Chris "Photomedium As Message" RealTime, December 2003 [http://www.realtimearts.net/article/issue58/8982 2004 Adelaide Biennial, RealTime] Retrieved 25 May 2011
