- Background
- Artspace Mackay is the regional art gallery owned and operated by Mackay Regional Council. The gallery's exhibitions program provides residents and visitors to Mackay with the opportunity to view exhibitions by significant international, Australian and local artists, and also touring exhibitions presented by Australia’s largest art galleries and museums.
Artspace Mackay is home to the 'Australian Artists' Book Forum' and the 'Libris Awards: Australian Artists' Book Prize'.
The Australian Artists' Book Forum brings together artists, curators, writers, academics, students and collectors to discuss artists' books and book arts in Australia.
The Libris Awards is a premier national artists' book prize, and initiative of the Mackay Regional Council through Artspace Mackay. These biennial awards seek to develop awareness of the Council's significant collection of artists' books, and to develop the collection further through the acquisition of new works by leading Australian artists working in this field. The Libris Awards are open to artists living and working anywhere in Australia.
Visit the website www.artspacemackay.com.au for an updated list of current, past and future exhibitions, as well as up-to-date information about the 'Libris Awards: Australian Artists' Book Prize' and the 'Australian Artists' Book Forum'.
