Shotgun Catalogues

Shotgun is a Contemporary Art Tasmania artist development program. It is an awarded opportunity that supports selected Tasmanian artist/s through a customised and intensive program of high-level industry access, critical engagement and new work.

The project began in 2010 as the outcome of a public and private collaboration between Contemporary Art Tasmania and Detached Cultural Organisation (2010 – 19), and grew to include the Museum of Old and New Art (2017 – 19). Shotgun 8: dark maria was the final program under the highly successful partnership, which is now in its ninth iteration.

Each Shotgun exhibition has been accompanied by a publication, with essays by mentors and curatorium, which are available to purchase.
