The
Constance Gordon-Johnson Prize for Sculpture and Installation was
awarded for the sixth time in 2009. This award has been
made possible by a generous donation from the estate of the late
Constance Gordon-Johnson, a well known South Australian artist and arts
worker. Constance Gordon-Johnson was well known as a
leader in the visual arts, specifically community arts, and this award
commemorates her vision, participation and creative spirit.
It is with great pleasure that the School
of Art, Architecture and Design offers this award to a graduate student
with a Specialisation in the studio area of
Sculpture and Installation from either the Bachelor of Visual Arts
or Bachelor of Visual Arts Honours programs.
The Constance Gordon-Johnson Sculpture and
Installation Prize acknowledges outstanding achievement, and is awarded
to a student on the strength of a body of work presented for selection.
