Archibald Prize Film Program 

Fame - Part 2 continues our popular Archibald Prize film series begun in 2005, in which we explore the heights and pitfalls of fame. The Archibald Prize features portraits of significant Australians who have been successful in their chosen field. Winning the competition guarantees an artist instant celebrity. This series of feature films and documentaries raises provocative questions about the pursuit of success in the arts, sport, media and politics and speculates on the price that one pays to chase one's dreams. Free entry tickets are issued at the Domain Theatre 30 minutes prior to commencement of the film. Please note that seating is limited and cannot be guaranteed.
