An exhibition selected from work by the ten successful recipients of the 1993 Anne and Gordon Samstag International Visual Arts Scholarships.

The Samstag scholarships are Australia’s most valuable awards for visual artists, and were established through the bequest of American artist, Gordon Samstag, who taught from 1961 to 1972 at the South Australian School of Art. Samstag died in 1990, at the age of 83, in Florida, USA.

The ten artists, drawn from a national field of candidates, will receive funding for all their reasonable costs, to pursue further studies in the visual arts at institutions overseas, including New York, Berlin, Prague, Copenhagen, London and Belfast.
