Arts Project Australia partnered with Civic Outdoor on a series of high profile billboards.

Responding to the 2020 lockdowns, the partnership gave Arts Project Australia the opportunity to roll out a series of large-scale billboard art installations across Melbourne, featuring prolific contemporary artists from the studio.

The multi-disciplinary range of artworks features bold landscapes, mesmerising abstractions and humorous wordplay.

Civic Outdoor generously provided space on their suite of digital billboards free of charge to assist Arts Project Australia in operating under COVID-19 restrictions.

“The art industry has suffered immensely from the impacts of the pandemic. The opportunity to present artwork by Arts Project Australia artists in these challenging times is but a small gesture from Civic Outdoor to help create ongoing exposure and awareness of such a wonderful organisation.”

Leah Whitford, Civic Outdoor

Billboard art installations were located across Preston, Kilsyth, Collingwood, Sunshine, Wantirna, Bayswater, Bentleigh and Bundoora.

“Arts Project Australia is excited to be partnering with Civic Outdoor to broaden the reach of artwork created by our artists. The impacts of COVID-19 has dictated our studio and gallery close over the last six months; this partnership provides our gallery with a high-profile way to exhibit art across Melbourne.”
