In celebration of the 100th anniversary of the Archibald Prize, Archie 100 explores the history of Australia’s most prestigious portrait award. The exhibition presents a diverse selection of Archibald portraits from the last century—the triumphant and the thwarted—and honours the artists who have made the prize the most sought-after accolade in Australian art today.
Archie 100 is an Art Gallery of New South Wales touring exhibition. Geelong Gallery is the exclusive Victorian venue for Archie 100.
