The Lock-Up’s annual fundraising show is back, featuring its biggest line up yet with works by over 100 Hunter-based artists, and some former and future TLU exhibiting artists. All works will be available to purchase online and in the gallery, with 40% of all sales facilitating The Lock-Up’s artistic program and 60% kept by the artist. This year’s edition is curated by Young & Emerging Curator Isabel Whittle.
The Lock-Up is committed to presenting the best of contemporary art in Newcastle, and the gallery hopes to mirror this commitment in its selection of artists. COLLECT is a celebration of Newcastle’s diverse creative community – it’s the gallery’s way of supporting and connecting with its local community of artists, by introducing them to Collectors big and small.
Featured artists include Ben Adams, Gillian Adamson, Jamie Bastoli, Dean Beletich, Chris Brown, Giverny Burke, Raffi Butler, Wanjun Carpenter, Leeroy Chapman, Jasmine Christie, Kerrie Coles, Dino Consalvo, Lottie Consalvo, Sia Cox, Jen Denzin, James Drinkwater, Leslie Duffin, Helen Dunkerley, Jono Everett, Myrrhine Fabricius, Megan Farquhar, Sophia Flegg, Aidan Gageler, Peter Gardiner, Michelle Gearin, Alex Golden, Penelope Green, David Griffen, Lucas Grogan, Ellie Hannon, Ileigh Hellier, Warwick Heywood, Stephen Hobbs, Marlene Houston, Annabel Jaffray, Locust Jones, Polina Karuso, Ben Kenning, Jane Lander, Xavier Lane, Peter Lankas, Justin Lees, Holly Leonardson, Damien Linnane, Genevieve Lore Finn Unicorn, Eddy Lou, Klaya Lowry, Holly MacDonald, Louisa Magrics, Paul Maher, Jack Malcolm, Jaymie Maley, Pat Mavety, Nicki McCann, Elizabeth McDonald, Carolyn McKay, Edwardo Milan, Lydia Miller, Barbara Nanshe, Bronte Naylor, Catharine Neilson, Heath Nock, Olivia Parsonage, Ella Grace Paterson, Rod Pattenden, Brett Piva, Liam Power, Izabela Pluta, Cordelia Prangley, Ramona Raven, James Rhodes, Hannah Robinson, Susan Ryman, Sandy Sanderson, Malvika Satelkar, Alex Seton, Jo Shand, Braddon Snape, Wednesday Sutherland, Annabel Sutton, Michelle Teear, Catherine Tempest, Paula Thistleton, Raina Thomson, Lezlie Tilley, Vanessa Turton, Tahlia Undarlegt, Amy Vidler, Jackson Voorby, Samantha Walsh, Bridie Watt, Clare Weeks, Ahn Wells, Karen Wells, Katie Ellen Wilkins, Lauren Wiltshire, Kara Wood, Lexie Worboys, Susan Zaia, and Vera Zulumovski.
