OFF THE WALL


"Getting your foot in the door of commercial galleries can be the most difficult step an artist has to take. Off The Wall provides a great opportunity not just to sell work, but also to get noticed by some of Australias best galleries, curators and consultants."

Off The Wall is a major feature of The Weekend Australian Art Melbourne 08, Art Sydney 08 and Art Brisbane 08, dedicated to the promotion of independent and unrepresented artists. It is a rare opportunity for the work of undiscovered artists to be viewed by thousands of active art buyers and over 100 high end commercial galleries.

Off The Wall was a huge hit in Brisbane with unprecedented levels of publicity and impressive sales figures. The stand itself looked the best ever and I was very impressed with the level of local support from the art community in general.

Art Sydney deadline is looming, so if you want ot have your work out there, please enter ASAP.

Here's what some of The Weekend Australian Art Sydney 07 artists have to say....

 "Off The Wall has to be the most positive experience I have had as an artist to date... from the respectful way you treated each individual artist, the contact with other OTW artists, through to the amazing feedback we received from the general public and gallery representatives. I have been hearing the term 'Art Incubator' a lot recently and I think that is exactly what you have achieved with OTW.... Yeah!!!"
Gizelle Regan - ACT

"Thankyou for the weekend again, it was such a fantastic experience to be part of 'Off The Wall', I had a couple galleries contact me, also a few people have e-mailed me asking for some images/work for sale, which I wouldn't have been able to achieve in such a short space of time. It was good to meet some of the artists, who were a lovely bunch of people (naturally).

The exhibition itself looked great, the work from 'Off The Wall' the strongest and most diverse of Art Sydney 07. So I definitely look forward to the next few months, it’s made me enthusiastic and excited about my practice as an artist again."
Skye Andrew - NSW

"I am thrilled with the way everything went. From the very first day everything about Off The Wall has been amazing, The co-ordination, communication and execution has been first-rate. The event was great and the follow up by you guys even better. I Thank you SOOOO much for everything you have done in this complex process, you have made it a wonderfully worthwhile undertaking for me (and others, obviously). I’m very excited about the publicity and public profile the show has afforded me..let’s hope it comes to something, I'm so grateful."
Drew Bickford - NSW

"Thanks for organising the show so well. Everything looked fantastic, and it was really encouraging to get such good feedback. I'm really impressed by the installation of my work, it looked great. I'd love to apply for the Melbourne Off The Wall next year!"
Jessica Herrington - NSW

"Exhibiting in Off the Wall at both Art Melbourne and Art Sydney in 2007 was an extremely valuable experience.  It provided an opportunity for my work to be seen by thousands of people which has led to future exhibition opportunities interstate as well as the sale of my work. Cash Brown was extremely supportive of all the Off the Wall artists at both art fairs. Her hard work and genuine passion to see emerging artists develop and succeed resulted in Off the Wall being one of the most successful and talked about stands at the fair....."
