The Cowra Regional Art Gallery is pleased to announce the finalists for the Calleen Art Award 2021 worth $25,000 in prize money.
The Calleen Art Award is an acquisitive art prize for painting in any style or subject. An entered artwork must be an original and unaided painting by the artist in any painting medium including oil paint, acrylic or watercolour. This year the Gallery received 407 entries by artists from across Australia and 46 finalists have been selected by the pre-selection panel of art professionals.
The Calleen Art Award encourages originality, creativity and excellence in the visual arts and is a signature art event in the central west region of NSW. The selected artworks consist of a diverse range visually compelling, thoughtful and challenging paintings.
The winning work will join the Calleen Collection housed at the Cowra Regional Art Gallery and visitors to the Calleen Art Award exhibition (including online at the Gallery website) can vote in the People’s Choice Award. This is announced at the end of the exhibition.
