The Louis Joel Gallery are seeking expressions of interest for a group exhibition focusing on Altona Pier’s heritage and redevelopment. This group exhibition is the culmination of the Altona Pier Revue Project, a community arts project celebrating change and transformation of Altona’s landmark pier, and supported by ExxonMobil Australia and Hobsons Bay City Council.
Coinciding with heritage month, the Altona Pier Revue Art Prize will showcase the work of local artists responding to Altona Pier, its history, its redevelopment, and its future. Artworks selected for this exhibition will be in the running for a number of prizes, sponsored by Sweeney’s Estate Agents.
This expression of interest is open to local artists who are at all stages of their careers - from emerging to established and whose work speaks to the theme The Altona Pier Revue. Artists living, working, or studying in Hobsons Bay, Wyndham, Brimbank and Maribyrnong can apply.
Applications open on 26 February 2024.
All entrants must complete the application form by Sunday 24 March 2024 and send images of (up to) two artworks via wetransfer. Late entries will not be accepted.
