The Shock of the Not So New: What is an Emerging Artist?
There's always an emerging artist or two at ALASKA Projects. So where better to sit down and talk about what even that means?
Overview
Held at the appropriately underground ALASKA Projects, this discussion will unpick that ambiguous label 'emerging artist'. It seems we’re always on the watch for vibrant young game-changers, but what does this term actually mean? Is it tied to age? Or experience?
A solid lineup of speakers will trace the path from art school to art establishment, hopefully shedding a little more clarity. Sharing their thoughts will be Tess Allas, Alexie Glass-Kantor, William Sturrock, Sam Wild, Andrew Frost (MC) and recipient of the 2014 NSW Visual Art Fellowship (Emerging), Ramesh Mario Nithiyendran.
This event is one of our top ten picks of Art Month. Check out the other nine here.
