The Josephine Ulrick and Win Schubert Photography Award 2024 presents a diverse selection of artworks by artists at the forefront of photographic media. As a survey of contemporary practice, the award plays an important role in representing the ongoing evolution of photography and the ways in which artists use it to create striking and memorable images.
As the richest prize for photography in Queensland, the $25,000 acquisitive award is open to all Australian artists working in the broad medium of contemporary photography. Visitors to the exhibition will decide the $5,000 People’s Choice Award voting for their favourite artwork.
Since the Award’s inception, over 60 works have been acquired by HOTA, resulting in a celebrated collection that reflects shifts in the cultural and social landscape over two decades. Previous winners include wani toaishara, Tamara Dean, Shaun Gladwell, Darren Sylvester, Lynne Roberts-Goodwin, Polixeni Papapetrou, Polly Borland and Cherine Fahd.
This exhibition is free to visit and is open 10am-4pm daily until 11 May 2025.
