The Western Australian Goldfields region’s richest Art Prize is back for 2020, and invites artwork submissions that address the theme of Identity: Individuality in a modern world.
The City of Kalgoorlie-Boulder places pride in its rich multicultural history and diverse community, and this year’s theme seeks to highlight the breadth of diversity and individuality within the local community, and Australia more generally.
The City of Kalgoorlie-Boulder is inviting all artists to register for the 2019 Art Prize, with more than $37,000 in prize money, plus the opportunity to hold a solo exhibition in the Goldfields Arts Centre gallery.
The theme “A Place to Call Home”, lends itself to a myriad of concepts, such as beginnings, ancestry, origins, belonging and identity.
The winners of the City of Kalgoorlie-Boulder 2018 Art Prize were announced at an awards evening at the Goldfields Arts Centre on Friday night 21 September.
The annual event has taken a new direction this year, offering a major $20,000 acquisitional prize and artists having to submit work to a theme of gold.
