Emerging artists<br />
RBS Emerging Artist Award<br />
The RBS Emerging Artist Award is a unique initiative designed to bring the business and the<br />
<strong>arts</strong> closer together while recognising and promoting the work of emerging Australian<br />
contemporary artists. Each year, carefully chosen contemporary artists are invited to<br />
compete for the award. They define emerging artists as Australian artists who do not<br />
consistently sell their work for more than $10 000 and whose excellence is evident, but yet<br />
to be recognised on a commercial scale.<br />
