Nude Auction, University of Wollongong 2009

Ok, I know ive been away for a while, but i havent been just sitting around doing nothing, so there will be some catch up posts coming, but for now the Annual UOW Nude Auction for 2009.

Incase your unfamiliar the University of Wollongong, each year the Faculty of Creative Arts hold an auction of Artists/Student and Teachers art work, all based around the nude. Now this can be based around the human form or a play around the word and application of the word nude. All proceeds of the auction go the the 2009 Art and design Graduation Exhibition, this year called 'Grad Wrap'

At the request of a friend, this years artwork comes as a set of two prints, 594 x 840mm

Ive always been interested with the concept of the degradation of an image, and my submissions to the nude auction over the last few years has tried to reflect this.

After the auction a limited run of these prints will be available through redbubble, details will be released in a future post

The 2008 Nude Auction

The nude auction is an annual event held by the Faculty of Creative Arts at the University of Wollongong. The event is one of the few occasions where works by both Students and Teachers hang together. All proceeds go to the 2008 Graduation Exhibition 'The Rabbit Hole'.

I've decided to enter a digital print to this years exhibition, here it is:

So if your in the Wollongong Area this Thursday (4/9/08) around 12:30, swing by Building 25 of Wollongong Uni and have a bid, who knows you may pick up a student piece that will gather value in the years to come, or you might pick up an established artist print on the cheap (Like the 3 prints Jeff Carter donated - which usually sell for $2000 give or take)
