This year I am taking part in the Incognito Art Show, with three pieces currently on their way to Sydney.
It is my first year taking part, but from the moment I heard about the show and its purpose I knew I wanted to take part.
Here is the description from their website:
The Incognito Art Show is a not-for-profit organisation supporting Australian artists. It is Australia’s biggest and most inclusive art show. Every piece of artwork, regardless of artist, is sold for just $100. Profits raised will go towards funding programs that support artists working with disabilities.
The identity of an artwork’s artist remains anonymous at all times. Only once an artwork is bought, will the artist’s name be revealed to the buyer on the back of the artwork. The show’s unique model provides greater access to art-buying for those without the usual means to do so, as well as democratises art selection; buyers buy what they truly love, not a big name.
