Held every two years, the Arthur Guy Memorial Painting Prize is designed to attract some of Australia’s finest contemporary artists, awarding a generous acquisitive cash prize of $50,000.
The Prize was initiated by Mr Allen Guy CBE (1917-2007) to honour his brother Arthur Guy (1914-1945) whose life was tragically cut short whilst in service in New Guinea.
The prize is open to all Australian artists (citizens of Australia or residents for 12 months). Artists can enter a maximum of two works completed since 1 June 2019. Works must not exceed 2 metres in any direction including frame. Cost of entry (up to 2 artworks) is $50.
