The Art Auction is a vibrant ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½app tradition that brings together leading Australian artists, distinguished alumni, staff and honorary fellows to raise funds supporting Visual Arts and Design graduates to present their work nationally. In 2025, this support enabled ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½app graduate and Dharug artist Tom Duffy to exhibit at Hatched: National Graduate Show, where he received a Dr Harold Schenberg Arts Award.
 
This year’s auction presents an exceptional opportunity to acquire works by some of Australia’s leading and most significant contemporary artists. One of Australia’s foremost painters, Ben Quilty, internationally renowned Chinese-Australian artist Guan Wei, and acclaimed ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½app alumni Chris Zanko and Rob Howe have all generously donated works, alongside contributions from ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½app’s own acclaimed staff and many other respected artists from across the Australian arts community.
 
Whether you are an established collector or considering purchasing an artwork for the first time, the auction offers a rare opportunity to add an important work of Australian art to your collection while directly supporting the next generation of artists emerging from ÌìÃÀ´«Ã½app’s Creative Arts program.
 
The exhibition and silent bidding will open on Wednesday, 12 August, 10:00-4:00pm daily, in the Building 25 Gallery. The live auction will be held at 12.45 pm on Thursday, 27 August.
 
We hope you can join us.
