– Winner’s Award generously donated by Peter and Jane Crone –
Grammar School, proudly supporting emerging artists.
agendo A message from the Headmaster of Camberwell Grammar School The Agendo Art Competition is intended to support young artists in a practical and meaningful way. The commitment to ‘be an artist’ is one which requires courage and determination and persistence. It also requires a belief that Art is valuable and has worth – a belief which is not always easy to maintain in the face of the commercial realities of life. This competition was designed to support that belief and to provide some financial space in which future work can be created. The Arts have always held an important place within our School, and we have always encouraged our students to explore their own artistic dimensions. This competition represents an attempt to reach out to the world beyond the school and to support artistic endeavour of young adults in a practical and useful way. We are again fortunate to be supported by Peter and Jane Crone who have so generously provided the $10,000 prize that will be awarded to the winning artist. We are also thrilled that artists from all over Australia have accepted our invitation and provided us with a wonderfully diverse and exciting exhibition. I invite you to enjoy the results of this ambitious project in the 2019 Agendo Art Award Finalists’ Exhibition.
Paul Hicks Headmaster

Welcome to the seventh Biennial Agendo Art Award and Exhibition for young emerging artists. Agendo is an opportunity for young emerging artists to promote and expose their work and talent. In addition, this substantial award recognises the continued commitment and individual contribution that all young artists make to our community. Agendo is a non-acquisitive prize of $10,000 sponsored by Peter and Jane Crone. In addition to this prize, a work will be selected for purchase to remain in the permanent collection of Camberwell Grammar School. In this, the seventh Agendo Exhibition, we have again been thrilled by the response and the standard and range of entries that we have received. This re-affirms our decision to establish Agendo as a highly regarded event, showcasing the finest selection of emerging art by young artists in Australia.
