After a gruelling 3 months of competition, over which we have seen some of the finest artistic talent in Sydney scale the scaff to smash out their expression on the walls of Name This Bar, ArtBattles Australia culminates in the Summer Series Grand Final this Thursday night!
Wild card Naomi Van Anen is set to shake the bones of the formidable Taryn Culbert in what is set to be a showdown of epic proportions & awesomeness.
This time around the artist have been given free reign to express themselves as they choose, so without the constraints / guidance of a theme, get down to NTB on Thursday night to see what the girls come up with in their attempt to win the series & take home the $1000 prize money, $250 Lightsounds gift voucher, $180 pair of shoes from Tiger Beer Australia & Tiger Onitsuka, a bottle of VodkaO + more!
Join your hosts Simon Mercier & More TBA from 8pm on Thursday night to witness us crowning the winner of Artbattles Australia Summer Series!
Let the games begin!
After a late wildcard re-entry back into the competition, Naomi Van Anen stormed home to win our first final of the Summer Series. Congrats Nags, we couldn’t be more proud!
This week sees final 2 happen at Name This Bar, with winner of heat 4, Claire Nakazawa up against the proven talent of Taryn Culbert. The girls are set to show us their take on ‘Original Sin’ & as usual we will be auctioning their pieces with all proceeds going straight to these two fantastic artistic minds.
Giveaways from Lightsounds, Vodka O & Tiger Beer Australia to show our appreciation to the awesome crowd who continue to make this night & Name This Bar the dopest place in town on a Thursday (or any given night, for that matter). Antics & commentary from the incomparable Simon Mercier & More TBA serving up funk, soul, hip hop & anything else to git yo booty bouncing!
Due to an unfortunate 11th hour withdrawal from the competition by Timmy Savage, Naomi Van Anen has accepted a wild card re-entry & 2nd chance to show ArtBattlers what’s she’s made of!
