Winner Neil Haddon with The Visit
Congratulations to Neil Haddon, winner of the 2018 Hadley’s Art Prize.
Presented by Hadley’s Orient Hotel, the Hadley’s Art Prize, Hobart is an annual, acquisitive Australian landscape prize, which offers $100,000 to the winning entry. Dating back to 1834, Hadley’s Orient Hotel has a rich and fascinating history interwoven with art, particularly landscape art.
Haddon’s winning piece titled “The Visit” depicts British author H.G. Wells cycling through a nominal ‘Tasmanian’ landscape. Judge, Jane Stewart, described the piece as a “complex and accomplished painting that raises many questions about landscape, custodianship and contact history.”
Neil Haddon is exhibiting with Bett Gallery in November 2019.
