History of the Gilchrist-Fisher Award.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Gilchrist-Fisher Award was established in 1987. The award was established in memory of Alasdair Gilchrist-Fisher who died of cancer in December 1986 at the age of twenty-four. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“He was a remarkable young man whose wit, intelligence, enthusiasm and love of life won him many friends and presaged a great future. Soon after his illness was diagnosed he began a postgraduate art course, finding much joy in the discovery and exploration of landscape painting.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To celebrate Alasdair\u2019s life \u2013 and this particular connection, his friends raised a fund to establish the Gilchrist-Fisher Award.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Award is a biennial prize, meaning it happens every two years. The award is open to all artists under the age of 30 whose work explores the broad theme of Landscape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a very well-respected art award, just 6 artists have been shortlisted. The Financial Times described it as \u2018remarkable and admirable\u2019. Previous prize winners include Peter Doig, Alasdair Wallace and Angela Hughes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
