Armidale Art Prize (AAP) 2021
Our annual art prize will be held in two parts this year due to the size of our current (smaller) venue.

The AAP has  three categories: Painting, Works on Paper and Sculpture/ Craft Art and a People’s Choice Award. This year the prize will be held in two parts due to the size of our current venue. Painting and Craft Art/Sculpture sections in March and Works on Paper in August.

MINIATURE ARTS EXHIBITION
A new Exhibition on the Armidale Art Galleries calendar.
The definition of a miniature is a work where the actual artwork does not exceed 100 sq cm, (10x10 cms) or any variation under this size (eg, 12x8cms or 7x7cms etc).  Any 3D art work must fit within a 10cm cube.

All mediums and genre are acceptable. Subjects are only limited by an artist’s imagination.
 
Art work should ‘embody the spirit of miniaturisation’ showing an obvious reduction in the subject’s size. 
  • In portraiture, depiction of the human head shall be no large than 3.8cms from chin to crown.
  • In 3D works, a plinth or stand should not be included in the overall size unless it has been worked on and must be proportional to the work and not exceed 15cm in any direction.
  • Hand-made Books may not exceed a 40cm perimeter and must be entirely handmade by the artist.
It is all a matter of scale:  Try it, then enter your work in this exhibition.
