Shotgun is a unique and flexible artist-development model. 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 the production of new work. Described as a ‘shot in the arm’ or ‘fast tracking’ for artists, Shotgun sets out to enable development – that may take a number of years for individuals to self-organise – to occur over a short and concentrated period.
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 is now in its ninth iteration. Each Shotgun exhibition has been accompanied by a publication that includes commissioned texts.
