Since 1998, Kudos has provided a platform for the next generation of artists, designers, and curators to execute experimental project ideas through exhibitions, public programs and our digital space.
Kudos is dedicated to fostering the professional practices of UNSW ADA students and early-career creatives through a variety of volunteering and exhibition programs. At the core of our programming is a commitment to equipping students with the skills they need to navigate and achieve success in the world outside of art school.
We hold with pride that our platform has been a steppingstone for some of Australia’s most established artists, designers, and curators including 2013 Archibald Prize winner Del Kathryn Barton (Unreflective Immersions, 1998), 2015 AGNSW Sulman Prize winner Jason Phu (Golden Century, 2008), and 2020 NSW Visual Arts Emerging Fellow Dennis Golding (Kudos Emerging Awards, 2018).
