Public art within the new world-class Darwin City Waterfront will have a 24 hour impact and is intended to reach a broad audience of residents, tourists and local visitors. It will enhance the fabric of the landscape with poignant references to the past, present and the future. For artists it will mean opportunities to present skills, concepts and thoughts for inclusion into the precinct and the opportunity to participate in a significant contemporary art award.
The challenge is not to develop a formulaic city waterfront, a style that is already prevalent around Australia, but rather to stamp this development with the quality that will serve to distinguish Darwin in a global context, to set it apart, exhibiting the unique characteristics of Darwin by drawing on its rich cultural past, its dynamic present, and its promising future.
The award is open to artists who have based their practice within the Northern Territory for a substantial period of time or whose work demonstrates a strong connection with the Northern Territory or the surrounding region. Artists currently living interstate or overseas who comply with the above conditions may enter the award. The work of emerging artists is strongly encouraged as is work which demonstrates innovation in contemporary art practice.
