Celebrate 30 years of 4A and join us for a special fundraising auction bringing together an exceptional group of artists across generations.

This is a rare opportunity to collect works by some of the artists who have helped shape contemporary art in Australia and beyond, while directly supporting the future of 4A. Every acquisition contributes to 4A’s future exhibitions, artist commissions and public programs, helping us continue to champion new artistic voices for years to come.

Check out the online catalogue here. Online pre-bidding is now open! 

Participating artists include Abdul-Rahman Abdullah, Nathan Beard, Chun Yin Rainbow Chan, Guan Wei, Mehwish Iqbal, Lindy Lee, Ruth Ju-Shih Li, Man&Wah, Nathan Nhan, Ramesh Mario Nithiyendran, Jason Phu, Nusra Latif Qureshi, Huseyin Sami, Ye Funa and Louise Zhang.

Auctioneer Dion Woo will lead the evening’s live auction, with music throughout the night by DJ Adinda and DJ Evan Xavier. Evan will also present a signature cocktail created especially for the event.
