Bald Archys 2010
The Bald Archy is an Australian art prize, a parody of the Archibald Prize, an important portraiture award. It usually includes cartoons or humorous works making fun of Australian celebrities. It is supposedly judged by Maude, a cockatoo. It began in 1994 at the Coolac Festival of Fun, in the tiny town of Coolac but is now a popular event presented in Sydney, Melbourne and other locations.
Since 2005 the home of this art competition and its accompanying exhibition is the Museum of the Riverina, Wagga Wagga. However, in 2008, the prize was announced during the Canberra portion of the national tour. (Courtesy Wikipedia)
2AAA's Rod Smith has entered the competition for the past few years, in 2010 his entry features a well known former boxer!
