Twenty-two years in, the Basil Sellers Art Prize has built something rare: a prize that is genuinely ‘artist-centric’. The Prize stands as a testament to extraordinary creativity and artistic achievement. This prestigious event, supported by the generous patronage of Mr Basil Sellers AO, showcases Australia's finest 2D artworks in painting, drawing, and printmaking.
Explore a curated selection of exceptional finalists from across Australia, each eligible for the coveted $50,000 acquisitive award and the $5,000 Eurobodalla Prize, which honours an outstanding local entry.
