Congratulations to Adam Mandarano who has been awarded the 2026 Burwood Art Prize for his painting Painting in the park.👏
Presented by Burwood Council, the acquisitive prize recognises outstanding contemporary artistic practice responding to this year's theme, I AM HERE, which invited artists to explore ideas of identity, presence and cultural narrative. The 2026 Burwood Art Prize includes a $20,000 acquisitive award and is presented in partnership with the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia.
Adam is a founding member of Studio A and is one of two Studio A artists named as finalists in the prize, alongside Lex Tan.
The 2026 Burwood Art Prize exhibition runs from 25 May to 28 June 2026 at Burwood Library, featuring finalists from across Sydney working across painting, sculpture, photography, mixed media and moving image. Visit the exhibition during library hours to enjoy the work of all the finalists.
