The Dobell Prize is the most respected award for drawing in Australia.
Each year the exhibition presents works by around 30 finalist artists, representing some of the best of Australian contemporary drawing. The winner receives AUD25,000.
First awarded in 1993, the prize is often the subject of discussion and debate about the nature of drawing. What constitutes a drawing is however, deliberately not outlined in the conditions of entry. That has been left for competing artists to define by their practice and for each individual judge, annually appointed by the trustees of the Sir William Dobell Art Foundation, to determine in the process of looking at all the entries. This flexible, open-minded approach has ensured that the greatest variety of drawings is submitted each year.
