Narcissus has been selected as a finalist for the Kennedy Prize Art Award 2015 and will be exhibited from 20-28 Nov 2015, Adelaide, South-Australia.
The Kennedy Prize is an annual Australian art award of $25,000 for ‘beauty’
The prize, offered by the Kennedy Arts Foundation, is based and exhibited in Adelaide but open to Australian artists nationwide, and is awarded to works that embody, comment on or celebrate beauty.
The winning artist will receive the Kennedy Prize of $25,000, and their artwork will be acquired by the Kennedy Arts Foundation, toured nationwide and auctioned at the next year’s Kennedy Prize exhibition. The work’s increased recognition, prestige and market value will thus contribute significantly to the prize’s funds, ensuring continued annual growth. The main exhibit will present finalists’ works, demonstrating their exceptional quality.
