National Art School 2019–2025 Strategic Plan Executive Summary
National Art School 2019–2025 Strategic Plan Executive Summary The National Art School (NAS) sits on one of the most significant sites in Australia – a meeting place for the Gadigal people, the site of the oldest gaol in Australia – and since 1922 the National Art School has called this site home. Over 185 years since our founding, and 96 years on this site, we have had a dynamic history, with many of Australia’s leading artists studying and teaching here. National Art School alumni have framed late 19th Century and 20th Century Australian art practice. They have formed a significant part of the Art Gallery of NSW’s exhibitions and collection acquisitions. One in five Archibald Prize winners has come from the National Art School. But our future is in preparing contemporary artists to be well equipped for the 21st Century. At the leading art fair in the Asia Pacific – the 2018 Sydney Contemporary Art Fair, 56 out of 337 artists were NAS alumni – that is one in 6, more than any other art institution. The National Art School is Australia’s leading independent fine art school; a producer of new art; a place to experience and participate in the arts; and a presentation venue. Our future vision is for a vital and energetic arts and education precinct. A place where art is made, rehearsals take place, art is seen and most importantly people can experience and participate in art. We will partner with other NSW arts organisations to deliver valuable ACDP objectives for the engagement and participation with people living and/or working in regional NSW, people living and/or working in Western Sydney, Aboriginal people, people from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) backgrounds, people with disability, and young people. -

Amor has held over 50 solo exhibitions since first exhibiting at Joseph Brown Gallery in 1974 and has shown annually at Niagara Galleries since 1983. A major survey exhibition of his paintings was curated by McClelland Gallery in 1990 and toured various regional galleries in Victoria and South Australia. In 1993 an exhibition mounted by Bendigo Art Gallery toured Victoria and Tasmania, presenting his work as a printmaker and graphic artist. An important exhibition of Rick’s bronze sculpture was undertaken by Benalla Art Gallery in 2002, including many maquettes never previously exhibited. In 2005, Robert Lindsay curated Rick Amor: Standing in the Shadows, the second major survey of Amor’s work to be presented at McClelland Gallery+Sculpture Park. In March 2008, Heide Museum of Modern Art presented Rick Amor: A Single Mind, a triumphant survey of Rick’s paintings and works on paper from 1968 – 2008.

Mandy Martin
MANDY MARTIN Mandy Martin’s art has always been thematically concerned with commenting on the environment and those issues which impact on it. Her works have always dealt with a range of socio-political themes with her early works exploring the suburban nature of Canberra and Queanbeyan and the isolation of migrant women living there. In conjunction with these paintings,Mandy began looking at buildings (houses, warehouses, factories) and the sense of alienation that these structures could symbolise. Mandy’s extensive travels in outback Australia since the 1980shave provided the source for some of her most vital and powerful visualstatements and continue to provide inspiration to the present day.From the 1990s onwards, the land, the environment and the layers of Aboriginal and European culture have given her the materials to create her own vision of the human condition andits relationship to the natural world. During this period, Mandy has been coordinating art and environment projects and is currently working on an ongoing project in Arnhem Land, ‘Arnhembrand: Living on Healthy Country. Her current works arise from these art projects and her series about mining and climate change. Mandy Martin has been exhibiting for thirty years and has held numerous exhibitions in Australia and internationally including Mexico, the United States of America, France, Germany and Japan. Born in Adelaide, Mandy studied at the South Australian School of Art before becoming a lecturer at the Australian National University School of Art in the late 1970s. She has held the position of adjunct professor at the School of Environment and Society, Australian National University since 2008.
