About the prize

With its humble beginnings, like the suburb itself, the Chippendale Creative Precinct (CCP) has thrived, matured and is now bursting with possibilities; through an extremely generous, private donation of $100,000 over 10 years, the winner of the Chippendale New World Art Prize will be announced on Tuesday 30 April 2013. Dr. Stanley Quek, Chairman of Frasers Property Australia, has entrusted the CCP to foster the next generation of emerging artists through this exciting initiative.

The Chippendale New World Art Prize winner will receive a $10,000 residency grant with Red Gate Residency in Beijing, China for 3 months beginning July – September 2013. In addition the winner will receive an exclusive opportunity for a solo exhibition at NG Art Gallery, Chippendale in 2014.

Each year the prize will take on a new theme in accordance with the process of constructing a new world. The theme for 2013 is Revitalisation, which seeks to reflect the metropolis reignited into a bustling, populous, creative and invigorated scene. Innovation and artistic vision leads our process of Revitalisation, generating a fertile base on which we cultivate our New World.
