  • 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.

  • REDLANDS WESTPAC ART PRIZE 3 May – 2 August 2012 National Art School Gallery PREFACE
    2012 REDLANDS WESTPAC ART PRIZE 3 May – 2 August 2012 National Art School Gallery PREFACE The National Art School is delighted to partner with Redlands School to deliver the prestigious 2012 Redlands Westpac Art Prize. This is the inaugural year of our collaboration and the first presentation of the annual exhibition in the National Art School Gallery after fifteen highly successful years of the exhibition being held at Redlands School and, more recently, the Mosman Art Gallery. The Redlands Westpac Art Prize provides a unique opportunity to view an artist-selected exhibition of established and emerging contemporary artists from Australia and New Zealand. The exhibition represents the work of those already well recognised in their fields and brings to the attention of a wider audience lesser known contemporary artists, providing a significant opportunity to support and reward excellence in the visual arts. This approach sits well with the ethos of the National Art School, an artist-led institution that provides exemplary studio-based training for the artists of the future. Importantly, the structure for the selection of artists for the exhibition, of the chosen established artists individually selecting an emerging artist, also reflects our central belief in professional artists contributing to the development, training and mentoring of the next generation. With the longest continuing history of an art school in Australia, the National Art School has an extraordinary group of alumni, many of whom are key figures in the history of Australian art and contemporary art practice. It is, of course, especially rewarding to see that the National Art School alumni and staff are well represented in the 2012 Redlands Westpac Art Prize selected by Lindy Lee.

    About this Education Resource 2 Curriculum links and themes General capabilities VIOLENT SALT Introduction 4 Interview with Curators Yhonnie Scarce & Claire Watson 4 Glossary of terms 6 THE ARTISTS Abdul Abdullah 10 Vernon Ah Kee 16 Richard Bell 20 Daniel Boyd 24 Megan Cope 30 Karla Dickens 35 S.J. Norman 42 Yhonnie Scarce 48 Jemima Wyman 52 About this Education Resource The artworks in Violent Salt respond to themes of racism, marginalisation, isolation and prejudice. These themes can, at times, be sensitive and difficult to discuss. The intention of this education resource is to create a starting point for generating inquiry-based, thought provoking conversations whilst in the gallery. Tour guides, educators and tertiary students may use this kit to navigate multiple inroads to exploring and unpacking the works and artist statements of the nine prominent, contemporary Australian artists featured in the exhibition. Curriculum links and themes This guide has been designed from a gallery educators’ perspective, providing background information on the work practice of each artist and a series of open-ended questions, alongside activities that explore the physical and conceptual nature of each artwork. The formatting of the questions has been framed around four key focus points often explored during gallery tours: OBJECT (materials/techniques); SUBJECT (concepts/theme/intention) CONTEXT (viewpoints/philosophies/ideologies/place focus): PERSONAL (politics/roles and responsibilities of art). To aid educators, each focal topic has been aligned with content descriptors from the Year 7 to 10 Australian Arts Curriculum as well as Units 1 – 4 of the Victorian and Queensland Senior Secondary Curriculums.
