The 60th Blake Prize

In 2012 Burrinja will be the exclusive Victorian venue for the 2011 Blake Prize for Religious Art.

The Blake Prize was established 60 years ago as an incentive to raise the standard of contemporary religious art away from out-dated or imitative styles. This exhibition will feature 30-35 finalist artworks from the 60th Blake Prize, including the winning artworks.

The Blake Society, named after the visionary artist and poet, William Blake, implements and manages the annual prize and exhibition program for contemporary art and poetry exploring the themes of spirituality, religion and human justice.
