Collective Action: CEAD panel discussion

Thu 15 August, 6 – 7:30pm

Manly Art Gallery & Museum 

You are invited to join MAG&M’s Collective for Environmental Art & Design (CEAD) at the first panel discussion of this new initiative. We’re bringing together industry-leading creative thinkers to discuss the power of collective action, and to learn what is possible when we work together to envision environmental solutions. Working at the intersection of art, design, and the environment, our panellists will discuss the ways in which they are working towards a sustainable future, the solutions they are exploring, and how you can be part of it. Through sharing the successes and learnings from their own experiences, the speakers invite us to be part of an ambitious and vital ongoing conversation. The speakers include; Dr Jenny Newell, Curator for Climate Change at the Australian Museum’s Climate Solutions Centre, Dr Lucas Ihlein, artist and Senior Lecturer in the School of Arts, English and Media, University of Wollongong, and member of the Kandos School of Cultural Adaptation (KSCA), and Floria Tosca, multi-disciplinary practitioner drawing on her experience growing up in a rural environment and her years working as a medical doctor, and a member of The Dirt Witches Scrub Collective.

The Paul Guest Drawing Prize @ Bendigo Gallery

July 9, 2024 by Anthea Boesenberg Leave a Comment

The Paul Guest Drawing Prize is an award and exhibition held biennially that highlights contemporary drawing practice in Australia. The Prize was initiated by former Family Court Judge and Olympic rower, The Honourable Paul Guest OAM QC and encourages artists from across Australia to engage with the important medium of drawing in contemporary art practice. The Prize is a non-acquisitive cash award of $18,000.

‘My abiding and passionate interest in art commenced several decades ago and from those early beginnings I was introduced to contemporary art in a holistic way which ran parallel to my professional career. I appreciate that the journey for artists is, at times, a demanding and tortuous one and I trust that in some small way I have and will continue to assist them to achieve their full potential,’ said the Honourable Paul M Guest, OAM QC
