2010 Exhibition of Winners and Selected Finalists
Auckland
The Awards, amounting to over $160,000, will be announced and presented on Monday, 6 September, 6:00pm, at the
TSB Bank Wallace Arts Centre
.
The Exhibition of Winners and Selected Finalists will be open to the public from 7 September - 7 October (hours to be confirmed) 2010 at the
TSB Bank Wallace Arts Centre
.
The works not chosen for the Exhibition of Winners and Selected Finalists will be exhibited in the Salon des Refusés, 7 September - 22 October 2010,
at the TSB Bank Wallace Arts Centre
.
Salons des Refusés have a very honourable history: The first was held in 1863 and arose because the official exhibition sponsored by the Académie des Beaux-Arts in Paris had been coming under huge criticism for rejecting new artists. The resulting complaints of bias led the Emperor Napoleon III to allow the rejected works to be displayed in a separate exhibition. In that first exhibition were several important paintings such as Manet’s “The Luncheon on the Grass”, James McNeil-Whistler’s “The White Girl”, and included works by Henri Fantin-Latour, Paul Cézanne, Armand Guillaumin, Johan Jongkind and Camille Pissarro.
Wellington
The Exhibition of Winners and Selected Finalists will travel to Wellington, and be open to the public 10:00 – 4:30 weekdays and 10:00 – 5:00 weekends from 16 October – 28 November 2010 in the Wallace Wing at TheNewDowse (45 Laings Rd, Lower Hutt).
