Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tāmaki invites you to Art in the Time of Cholera: The Inaugural Aotearoa Contemporary and Walters Prize Symposium to celebrate, examine and consolidate topics and themes evolving from this year’s Walters Prize 2024 and Aotearoa Contemporary.

The symposium brings together curators, artists, academics and creative professionals to discuss core themes from both shows across three panels and to respond to a movement-focused workshop.

This event aims to inspire further conversation, discussion and action within the creative community.

All are welcome to join and contribute to these vitally important discussions exploring and documenting a perceived turning point in the visual culture and identity of Aotearoa.

This event is free but you must register your place via the button below. 

The Walters Prize is made possible with the generous support of the following:

  • Founding Benefactors and Principal Donors – Erika and Robin Congreve, Dame Jenny Gibbs.
  • Major Donors – Dayle Mace, Christopher and Charlotte Swasbrook.

Aotearoa Contemporary is proudly supported by The Chartwell Trust, the Auckland Art Gallery Foundation, and a consortium of individual donors.
