NSW Parliament's Plein Air Art Painting Prize 2009

The second year of the Parliamentary Plein Air Art Prize will be displayed in the Fountain Court area throughout the month of May. The term ‘en plein air’ refers to the practice of painting out of doors, in direct engagement with nature, where the transitory effects of light can be observed and recorded. The winning painting will form part of an ever growing and significant permanent collection within Parliament in perpetuity for the people of the New South Wales.
