In 2022, Broken Hill Regional Art Gallery’s Open Cut Commission will award two (2) artists or collectives $10,000 to undertake field work in the Far West of NSW and develop a responsive project.
The outcomes of the project will be included in the Broken Hill Regional Art Gallery’s 2023 artistic program. Open Cut builds on the long history of residencies and field work undertaken in the region and continues to support creative practice in regional Australia.
The Open Cut Commission is open to all arts professionals working in all disciplines. This includes, but is not limited to, artists, writers, performers, directors, musicians, historians, curators and educators. The commission is to support the research and development of new work.
