Arts Project Australia
BOLD – Exhibition Launch
Join Arts Project Australia on Saturday 19 October from 3 – 5pm at the APA gallery in Collingwood Yards to celebrate the opening of BOLD.
For many neurodivergent artists, merely partaking in the contemporary art world is a bold and courageous act.
Held to coincide with APA’s 50th anniversary celebrations, BOLD highlights artists who are unapologetically themselves, and whose instinctive practices manifest in powerful and confident work. Subjects are distilled to their very essence, resulting in pure unadorned form.
Mirroring the fun, colour and joyful nature of the APA studio, BOLD features work by APA artists Adrian Lazzaro, Anna Dehm, Anthony Romagnano, Ian Gold, Jacob Cartelli, John Bates, Julian Martin, Michael Trasancos, Patrick Francis and Ruth Howard.
Bold is curated by Shell Odgers.
This opening event will follow the launch of Arts Project Australia’s publication: 50 Years.
