Sheparton Art Gallery Sheparton
The Sidney Myer Fund International Ceramic Award has undergone a review and some changes have been implemented. We are grateful to all artists who have contributed ideas and feedback. Entries for the new award, The Sidney Myer Fund Australian Ceramic Art Award, are now open for both Australian and International ceramic artists. With an expansion to $55,000 in prize monies, the new award confirms its place as the premier Australian/International acquisitive art award. With the hindsight of hosting ten international awards in its previous guise, the gallery has made a number of significant changes. These changes are intended to provide better career development opportunities for Australian ceramicists, more strategic collecting for the gallery, and a greater depth to the exhibition and associated publishing. There will be three recipients of the award, each of whom will receive a significant stipend to produce a body of work for exhibition, on the understanding that the gallery will select one work for its collection. Costs associated with the exhibition will be borne by the gallery, including freight and the production of a fully illustrated catalogue. The gallery will also pay airfares and accommodation for recipient artists to attend the opening event and present at the associated seminar. There will be six months between the announcement of award recipients and the delivery of works to the gallery. Recipients will be selected under the following categories;
| Australian Artist |
AUD$25,000 (cash component) |
| International Artist |
AUD$25,000 (cash component) |
| *Emerging Australian |
AUD$5,000 (cash component) |
Above represents the cash amount which artists will be awarded. However significant other expenses will also be covered. For the International artist these equal an additional $15k and the Australian categories, and additional $7.5k each. These expenses include airfares and accommodation to attend the exhibition opening event and seminar, a solo exhibition, freight and insurance of artwork, and a detailed catalogue with essay. *Artists applying for the Emerging Australian category must have ceramics as their primary arts practise and have been producing less than ten years. All applications for the award are to be completed online.
