...............
Sponsors Statement: Allens Arthur Robinson
Allens Arthur Robinson is delighted to sponsor the New South Wales Parliament Plein Air Prize, with an inaugural award in 2008 of $20,000.
Our sponsorship of this important new painting prize reflects our commitment to Australian art, most notably reflected in our significant collection of more than 1000 unique and challenging works by Australian artists developed since the mid- 1970s. The Allens Arthur Robinson collection has today grown to become a significant survey of painting over the last three decades, reflecting the passion of former partner Hugh Jamieson, who established the collection.
By sponsoring the New South Wales Parliament Plein Air Prize, Allens Arthur Robinson is continuing its ongoing support of working artists and encouraging the development of Australian cultural expression.
Sponsors Statement: NSW Parliament
The NSW Parliament is the mother legislature of Australia and also one of the oldest public buildings in the nation. Nothing could be more appropriate for this beautiful and historic institution than to encourage the creation and acquisition of new art works. The NSW Parliament Plein Air Painting Prize will enrich our Parliament and bring a new dimension to the cultural life of NSW.
