The Itchiball Prize is on again for 2008 and we’re calling for entries in Australia’s Most Disappointing Art Show!
WIN A $2,000 CHAPEL ST SHOPPING SPREE for the WORST ARTWORK!
With the support of Streets Ahead, City of Stonnington and Chapel St Traders, The Museum of Particularly Bad Art, (MOPBA), is raising money for three local charities by holding the Itchiball Prize at Chapel Off Chapel as part of The Melbourne Fringe Festival in October 2008.
Our CRITERIA is simple:
• Completely devoid of technical skill (colour, tone, perspective and shading)
• Unusual, poor or tasteless subject matters (preferably all three!)
• Undeniable passion, driven by an uneducated hand
The works can be produced or found, but must be original. Prints and reproductions are not acceptable. All artworks must be ready to hang.
Entries Close:
Sunday 22nd September 2008 at 9pm.
Entry forms are available in shops in the Chapel St precinct and selected Melbourne metro shops & cafes.
MOPBA Launch Evening:
Friday 3rd October 2008. 6-8.30pm
Chapel Off Chapel
12 Little Chapel St, Prahran, 3181.
Exhibition Dates:
The winning entry and other short listed entries as well as the MOPBA collection will be exhibited at Chapel Off Chapel from Friday 3rd October to Sunday 12th October 2008.
Works to be delivered to:
MOPBA Competition
C/o Yellow Bird Café
