NAS at Sydney Contemporary Art Fair 8-11 September

by

The National Art School is excited to present the next wave of Australia’s artistic talent at Sydney Contemporary in 2022. We will be showcasing the work of eight emerging artists who have recently graduated from either our Master of Fine Art Program or our Bachelor of Fine Art Program. The diverse exhibition will feature the best examples of painting, drawing, photomedia, ceramics and sculpture that NAS has to offer. For collectors who are interested in emerging art, young talent, and affordable works, the National Art School is the place to visit.

Located at stand H02, we will be showing 8 NAS artists.

Please come and join us at the Fair. We would love to show you new work by our extraordinary artists.

The National Art School was saddened to hear of the recent death of artist and NAS alumnus Bruce Goold (1948-2025).

Born in Newcastle in 1948, from 1961- 65 Bruce attended Sydney Grammar School, where he studied art with ceramicist and potter Gordon McCausland. This was followed by a year at the National Art School, Newcastle. Here he experimented with various mediums and made his first linocut. He then studied at the National Art School, c. 1967-68.

Bruce was a member of the artist collective Yellow House between 1970-72. The former Clune Gallery in Kings Cross was transformed by Martin Sharp and a group of fellow artists, who painted the exterior bright yellow and covered its internal walls with murals, portraits and decoration. Artists such as Brett Whiteley, Peter Wright, Bruce Goold, Greg Weight and Peter Kingston turned the building into an artwork, while visiting bands and celebrities made it a regular fixture of the Sydney scene.

Known principally as a printmaker, Goold created coloured linocuts and woodblocks including many images of Australian flora and fauna, as well as South Pacific inspired esoteric and symbolic subjects. He held solo exhibitions in Sydney, Melbourne and internationally in London and Ireland. He received major commissions for poster, logo and interior design and worked as a designer for Mambo from 1992.

A retrospective exhibition, Bruce Goold, Artist, Designer, Printmaker, curated by Therese Kenyon, was held at Manly Art Gallery & Museum in 2008.
The National Art School extends its sympathies to Bruce’s family and many friends.
