The 2025 Gallipoli Art Prize will be on exhibition at 6-8 Atherden Street, The Rocks from 16 April to 11 May, 2025. Open every day, free to the public from 10 am to 4pm.
The Gallipoli Art Prize is a privately funded prize, sponsored by the Gallipoli Memorial Club in Sydney. It invites artists to respond openly to the broad themes of loyalty, respect, love of country, courage, comradeship, community, peace, and freedom as expressed in the Gallipoli Memorial Club's creed.
Thirty-two finalists in the Art Prize will be exhibited including the winner - Andrew Tomkins with his artwork 'HMAS Karangi'
While many of the works reference WWI there are also works depicting contemporary servicemen including Naomi Lawler's portrait of her father and Ross Townsend's 'Duty Calls.' Many finalists take inspiration for their works from distant or close relatives who have served in the armed forces such as Henry Kerr's vibrant and loving portrait titled 'Grandad'.
Animals also feature in the works including A.E Stubbs-Race haunting artwork, 'LEFT' a painting of a lone horse. Several Australian war horses were left behind at Gallipoli Cove and their descendants can still be found living on the Gallipoli peninsula.
