PICA Salon 2012

PICA Salon 2012

The PICA Salon is a prestigious annual exhibition and the flagship event for ART1000, PICA’s award-winning donor program. Featuring an invited selection of highly sought after works by local, national and international contemporary artists, the PICA Salon celebrates PICA’s esteemed history by showcasing works by those that have exhibited over the past twenty-one years.

Reflecting PICA’s role in supporting artists engaged in diverse practices, rigorous approaches to artmaking and experimental ideas at all stages of their careers, the PICA Salon 2012 will feature a dynamic array of art forms from painting, drawing, sculpture and photography to performance, video, installation and bio-art.

With all art works for sale and all sale proceeds going directly back to the artists the PICA Salon not only is the perfect opportunity to build or start your collection it also helps artists, from emerging to established, to continue to develop their practices.

The Vernissage, the invitational opening night for PICA’s ART1000 donors, is a must for those wishing to acquire a prize artwork, build their contemporary art knowledge, meet artists and other like-minded people and share in an event that is firmly developing a reputation for being one of Perth’s most sophisticated evenings.
