Linden Art Prize 2016

Overview

View the work of this year's Linden Art Prize finalists on display at the Linden New Art Gallery starting Friday, March 4. Encompassing painting, sculpture, photography, video and a number of other mediums, the two-month exhibition at the Acland Street gallery will showcase the talents of six postgraduates competing for the award, which comes with a specially tailored mentorship and a $10,000 top prize.

This year's finalists cover a wide array of disciplines and backgrounds. Ink prints pressed using the metal from road signs, an installation made of misshapen knitted jumpers, and a series of camera-less photographs are just a few of the works you'll see on display from artists Emma Coulter, Simon Crosbie, Jenny Peterson, Julie Shiels, Deborah White and Elizabeth Wallace. The winner will be announced on the first night of the exhibition, which will remain open until Sunday, May 1.
