Robe plays host to its inaugural Acquisitive Outdoor Sculpture Prize and is calling all artists to get inspired for the opportunity to win $5000 cash and have their winning sculpture on permanent display in the historic township along the picturesque walking trails and coastline.Robe is a small, romantic and picturesque gem situated along the expanse of the Limestone Coast and the Great Southern Ocean. The somewhat 'remoteness' of our town from major cities has helped us preserve and maintain our heritage, our unique and quieter way of life and the ability to preserve the rugged beauty of our shores.
It is also for these reasons Robe is a major tourist destination. Visitor numbers in 2009 exceeded 30,000 people.
Application to exhibit in the prize is open to all emerging and established sculptors and artists are asked to work to a project brief and the theme Sunlight, Sand and Sea. All sculptures must be created from suitable and durable materials, which can be displayed permanently outdoors, near the ocean and in inclement weather in a highly public setting.
Prize Money: $5000 cash
Exhibition Dates: Friday 4 March - Tuesday 8 March 2011
Closing Date for Entries: Friday 4 February 2011
Location: Robe, South Australia
For a full description of the terms and conditions of entry, please contact the art prize coordinator: Alex Graham by email: alex@smalltownproductions.com.au or by phone: 4021 388 080.
