Julia Sirianni has been selected as a finalist in the 2024 Hadley's Art Prize for her work 'Turtle Creek' 2023. Presented by Hadley’s Orient Hotel, the annual Hadley’s Art Prize in Hobart is an acquisitive Australian landscape prize which offers $100,000 to the winning entry.
Hadley’s Orient Hotel has a long history with art starting with art-loving landlords in the late 1800s. The Hadley’s Art Prize, Hobart contributes to the art community, celebrates excellence in contemporary landscape art, promotes cultural tourism in Tasmania, and restores art to the historic walls of Hadley’s Orient Hotel through a landscape prize like early landlord Howard Hadley won in 1895.
Judged by a panel of art specialists, the prize is open to Australian artists over the age of eighteen working in two-dimensional media. Artists at all career stages are invited to enter. The exhibition of finalists will be held at the Hadley’s Orient Hotel from 3 - 25 August.
