Macquarie Group Collection
The Macquarie Group Collection has been supporting emerging Australian artists for more than 35 years, and the annual Emerging Artist Prize offers support to a new generation of visual artists.
Finalists' art will be displayed in the Emerging Artist Prize exhibition in The Art Space at 1 Elizabeth, Sydney. The exhibition will also be available for viewing online.
A selection of finalists’ art will be acquired by the Collection, with other works made available to the public for purchase; 100 per cent of proceeds goes directly to the artist.
Congratulations to the Winner, Highly Commended and Nick Waterlow OAM Highly Commended Award and all finalists and semi-finalists of the 2025 Macquarie Group Emerging Artist Prize.
