SUPPORT NAS, SUPPORT THE FUTURE OF ART

The NAS Art Auction and Cocktail Party is the National Art School’s annual fundraiser. It is a major cultural event featuring art and entertainment across our campus, including artist interventions; a live and silent artwork auction; performances by the renowned NAS Artist Band; a pumping dance floor; and an afterparty hosted by Archie Rose. NAS is where the future of art is trained, and the future of art comes together.

The National Art School is a 21st Century Art School that creates pathways to education and professional development opportunities for students and emerging artists. With your support, we will break down barriers to participation, maximise accessibility, and propel our students and alumni to become leading international artists.

Now open in Building 25 Project Space — Liz Bradshaw `I didn`t expect to live this long`.

For this year`s Queer Contemporary, NAS alum Liz Bradshaw presents an exhibition of large-scale sculpture and installation works that offer a personal and political queering of time, space, materiality, and ideas. Integrating new works alongside a fragment of an artwork created at NAS in the 1990s, the installation folds together the artist`s personal experiences with the complex histories of the school`s site and the broader Darlinghurst area, which served as an epicentre of Australian queer history.

On view until 7 March. Monday to Saturday, 11am–5pm.
