From the Artist Talk - Live Stream
Join us for our Local Contemporary Art Prize Special Edition From the Artist Talks. Our winning artists talk live on Facebook.
Go behind the work and into the minds of our winning artists. Join us for a special live interview series celebrating the winners of the Local Contemporary Art Prize 2006, as part of our From the Artist Talks program. Streaming live on Facebook, this special edition offers audiences a rare opportunity to hear directly from the artists about their practice, ideas, and creative journeys.
Across three live interviews, our winning artists take centre stage to discuss the stories, influences, and processes behind their prize-winning works. These conversations go beyond the gallery wall, giving insight into contemporary art making and the local contexts that shape it — straight from the source.
Each session invites audiences to connect in real time, ask questions, and engage with artists as they reflect on their careers and what the prize has meant for their practice. Whether you’re an art lover, practicing artist, or simply curious about contemporary creativity, these talks offer an intimate and inspiring experience.
Please submit any questions you have on the live chat on the Facebook stream, or presend your questions to [email protected] with the subject line: From the Artist Question.
