Macquarie Group Collection
The Macquarie Group Collection has been supporting emerging Australian artists for more than thirty years. The Collection's annual Emerging Artist Prize and associated exhibition offers support to a new generation of Australian visual artists, and is held in-person in Sydney and virtually. Artists are invited to enter original work(s) that reflect the Macquarie Group Collection theme, The Land and Its Psyche.
We acknowledge the traditional owners of country throughout Australia and pay our respects to their cultures, and to Elders past and present.
