I completely blew the timing of the announcement - thanks Sarah Eades for commenting & letting me know that the announcement won't be made until the end of October (that'll teach me for recycling things before reading them properly). The WP exhibition opens on Sept 13.
Still, all the more time to vote .....

The Walters Prize winner will be announced at the end of this week (if you're not feeling up with all this, never fear ... you can take a course!).
I have some reservations about the whole exercise, mostly because I feel that there's too long a time lag between the exhibitions artists are nominated for and the competition. Peter Robinson's Ack, for example, was staged almost exactly two years ago. That's just silly - and even sillier if Robinson has to reconfigure Ack to open at the AAG on the same day that Snow Ball Blind Time opens at the G-BAG.
But anyway. Let's test the wisdom of crowds ...

I almost had a heart attack at the thought the winner was being announced at the end of the week. Just thought i would clarify to anyone thinking the same that officially it is the end of October that the winner is announced by the Auckland Art Gallery. :) Look forward to the result of the poll.
