(via TONI&GUY Yen Young Austrailan Art Award presented by Gaffa)
good to see so many of our friends and people who submit to the book in this one! get on over and vote for the young australian art award (it’s all girls, so it should say young australian female art award, or guys should have been allowed to submit…)
they are still taking submissions as well!
It’s no secret that we love art and all the creative types who make the world so darned interesting. Continuing Yen’s strong tradition of supporting women in the arts, we’re hosting a competition to uncover the best and brightest new talent out there.
We’re looking for female artists and illustrators between the ages of 18 and 35, one of whom will be crowned the Toni&Guy/Yen Young Australian Artist of 2012.
Twenty finalists will be showcased in a special exhibition at Gaffa in Sydney on International Women’s Day on 8th March, 2012, with the winner also receiving a 2-week solo exhibition at Gaffa.
There’s a total prize pool valued at more than $26,000 up for grabs, including some special prizes for the runners-up.
If you think you’ve got what it takes then we’d love to see your work.
