The Bald Archy Prize 2010 daily 10am-4pm
5th February to 8th March. Open daily 10am-4pm. Admission $3.
The Bald Archy prize and its controversial judge Maude, the sulphur-crested cockatoo, have been tapping into the larrikin side of the Australian sense of humour for the last 17 years. Created as a spoof of that more serious competition, the Bald Archy Prize provides artists of all styles and standards with a genuine opportunity to create portrait paintings of humour, dark satire, light comedy or caricature ranging from the hilarious to the bizarrely vulgar.
Winning subjects over the years have included Kerry Packer, Amanda Vanstone, Edmund Capon, Shane Warne, Dame Edna Everidge, John Howard and Pauline Hanson, Robbie and Gai Waterhouse, Rupert Murdoch, Jeff Kennett, Cardinal George Pell and Tony Abbott, and Princess Mary and Prince Frederick of Norway, as well as the 2009 winner, Bart Cummings.
For the second year running the exhibition previews in Canberra as part of the Multicultural Festival. It then moves to Sydney, where the winner will be announced, before going on tour throughout Eastern Australia.
Presented by Watson Arts Centre and Peter Batey OAM, founder and director of The Bald Archy Prize.
Watson Arts Centre, Aspinall Street, Watson.
